Harshad's jackal post of yesterday reminded me of this image, captured Dec 2008 in Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park. It was late afternoon and this guy (?) was purposefully on the way; this was the best of 3 shots. Slight crop, some levels & sharpening; I left the branch in the front of his face in after some unsuccessful attempts to take it out and still maintain a natural look. (More practising Artie's "divide & conquer" technique required, I know:)). I am very fond of watching jackals going about their business. All c & c welcome.
