    Beautiful shot Steve. I like the head angle and the relaxed posture of the oryx. The light is beautiful, and the redish FG and OOF bg makes it stand out. I like that the bg is so soft and its composed from the bushes (or trees) and the blue sky. As for photoshop stuff, not much feed back to give. Yet. was it in the morning or the afternoon?

    Thank you Dan and no worries on the PS front. It was shot early afternoon this one had come down to drink in one of the pans (waterholes).

    Nice view of this majestic beast. I like the pose. Also like the setting. It shows where he lives. Detail looks very nice.

    Fantastic shot Steve -- Superb details and the angle makes it look huge. Excellent handling of light and great field work. Is the image slightly tilted or the surface is giving that illusion ?

    Enjoyed viewing this one .

    TSF !
