    Hi folks .... digging deep in the archive

    Image taken in the far north of Namibia in the so called " Caprivi Strip " ..... exact location was in the Babwata Game Reserve .
    IQ is not that great due to short SS and the heat haze has killed some of the finer details .
    Nevertheless I thought I go for it ... to post .

    What a gorgeous looking antelope. Love the horns. The light was handled very well. Interesting facial features.

    Love the processing Andreas, certain features on the antelope aren't as sharp as you usually deliver but as you said heat haze etc. I might be a little inclined to reduce the brightness of the dried grasses/twigs or increase the contrast just a little.

    Despite the heat haze I like the image Andreeas, the BG makes the antilope stand out and the colors compliment each other nicely. Beautiful specimen. I remember having a plastic toy when I was a little kid:)
