It has been wonderful to see all the African images that have been posted lately and it motivated me to go back and look at some that I took several years ago.
Nikon D1X
Nikon 600 mm F4
Aperture priority
!/1600, F11
ISO 400
This was before I started photographing mainly in manual mode.
Love the pose and the alert look. This back-up laptop seems to be having trouble holding calibrations; does this look much too yellow to anyone?

Great pose. It does look a bit on the yellowish-green side but not unnaturally so. Has an early morning light look to my eye. For my tastes, I think it could use a touch more sharpening on the hyena.
I think Art is correct, this could be a touch yellow but I dont think it is far off. (looking at the green grass and the animal?)
I like the pose and comp but you have lost a bit of detail on the animals body and face, did you run a NR? (I would think not at f11)
PS were was this image captured?
