    Very nice. Love the clouds in the sky and the matching poses. Composition is very nice as well.

    This is lovely - great poses from the three.
    In an ideal world there would have been open space in front of them but the aloe does form a nice pseudo-frame with the other branches on the RHS.

    My feelings as well Morkel, would have preferred the Aloe to be on the RHS.

    Lovely atmosphere. The Euphorbia tree gives it a lovely African feel. Personally the framing works for me.

    Hi Marc -- You just keep coming up with different images all the time. Another fantastic image. loved the positioning of your subjects and the positioning of the Aloe is fine IMO , better had it been on the RHS but still works as framed. Nicely done.

    TFS !

    Hello Marc,

    There's something very cute about this trio of Klipspringers lined up so perfectly and with identical pose - well seen and great timing here... I doubt they sat still for long?

    I do not mind the Euphorbia tree one bit, somehow it gives a different dimension to the entire image. And the sky adds a lot to this frame.
    Love the tension here as well as "attention" from the subjects - once again, nice story telling Marc, a pleasure to view

    Kind regards,
    Gabriela Plesea
