    Hi Vincent,

    Beautiful BG, light and subject. Well captured. If it were mine (and I wish it was;)) I'd be tempted to clone out the grass which comes in from the right and goes across the body. Great work.

    Ditto on the errant grass. Otherwise, nothing to add except I find a lot of things to like about it. You are so fortunate to have this varied subject material before you.

    Such wonderful soft light, the pink sky in the BG, soft grass in the FG all combine for a nice portrait. I agree on the suggestion to clone the grass. The positioning of him in the frame and decision to go vertical are perfect.

    Great light and detail in the rhino. Really like the pink sky and the low angle.
