    A scrawny fella!
    Nice pose and soft tones here.
    Was it cropped from horizontal?

    Hi Sanjeev - My first thought was the same as Morkel's - that's a skinny jackal. Nice comp and colors. The head looks a little oversharpened and crunchy to me.

    TFS,
    Rachel

    Morkel, this was shot vertical, but needed some rotation to make it level so lost a good bit on either side. Also, went for a 9:16 crop as he was a lanky fellow.
