There is no need to travel to an exotic private reserve to see these guys, I have them in my local reserve just down the road from me. I went out yesterday morning for the first time in ages, and came across a huge family of Meerkats foraging for their breakfast. I managed to capture quite a few different poses and behaviour, and quite liked this pose with my avian techniques kicking in with this nice HA ( head angle ). Taken early morning captured from my car.

After reading your comment on the WB/Yellows, this was out of camera, but I see by reducing the yellows, it does make a difference to bring the grass out a bit more.
. Always good to have you post in Wildlife. Great low pov and catchlight in the eye. It's interesting to see how red the sand and termite mounds are. The comp works nicely. The greens are better in the rp. Looking forward to more.
