    Wow Marc! You should sell this to Disney! Love it. The position in the frame, the curled tail, the dramatic colors of the sky, and the bit of detail in the profile all combine for a fantastic silhouette image. Congrats on this one. Again, I am more than a little jealous.

    TFS,
    Rachel

    I really like this as well. The position of the the works so well as does their respective poses. The sky adds a ton of course. The bit of foliage on the RHS helps add balance too. Congrats on the image as well as the publication. TFS

    Awesome Marc. I plan to make my maiden trip to Masai Mara in August and hope can at least make one interesting frame in silohuette that Mara is famous for. Also congrats on being published in The Times. It boosts our morale to take all the pain and expenses one has to go through to make image like this.

    Magic, super, brilliant, fantastic and the caption is exactly what I was thinking, oh boy, oh boy what a picture! You must be absolutely delighted Marc, what a thrill it must be to produce an image such as this.
