    Forgive me if I am boring you with all these wildebeest images - I know it's not as exciting a subject as predators and gracious antelopes :);)

    This is another perspective on my previous image of this sighting - Loneliness (http://www.birdphotographers.net/for...ad.php?t=50679).

    I zoomed closer here for another perspective. The light was harsh but I deemed it fitting to show the harsh existence in this arid place.

    Also processed as an HDR in B&W. Your thoughts once again highly valued!

    Very nice. Really like the comp and the clouds really make a dramatic image.

    I like all the variations, Morkel, but this close-up is my favourite. Well done.

    Hi Markel, I love the sky in this image and I think going B&W was a perfect choice. Not sure how you would be boring us with this terrific work!

    Not boring at all, Morkel! This is beautiful! I, especially, like the swirling winds that form the bg.
