Out early again on a very cold, grey and dismal day. One of those days when you just want to stay in bed, warm.
Nothing was out, all the animals having more sense than us, but then we found a large group of young Rhino's (xx amount), but in this region poaching has been huge and devastating to the population and so cutting the horns has been adopted to hopefully help in keeping these wonderful animals alive, sadly from a photo POV it's not ideal, but I would photograph they guys anytime if it meant they are still alive.
We found them grazing where some pipework had been laid, hence the vast expanse of soil exposed, but one guy was a bit more feisty than the rest, just playful banter, but he decided to have a run at us, stopping a few meters away from the vehicle. At the time we just were watching them, vehicle stopped, engine off so all I could do was grab the camera and shoot. Yes, in an ideal world more room to the LHS, more SS & DoF, but it still turned out OK IMHO.
Thanks to those who posted or viewed on the last posting.
