    I was not really 'in' the herd, but that is the feeling this image conveys IMO.

    Vincent, I like this one. It conveys the feeling of a herd in a late afternoon. It works for me. It might have been better without the extreme right zebra's back.

    Your photography is getting better and better....I really like this Vincent! Great atmosphere captured! While the bird does take away some attention from the zebra's it is certainly a point of interest in this photograph.

    Love the atmosphere and the afternoon light. Image does give the sense of being in the herd. Not sure I like the cut off positions of the 2 zebra in the FG. This is a diffiult situation to pull off.. The rear of the zebra on the right is most troubling for me. I like the bird it adds another point of interest...
