    Some common zebra having a social grooming session. I have left the crop fairly loose as I wanted a more environmental feel.

    Hilary,

    I know that you mentioned that you left the crop loose for an environmental feel but to me the symmetry of the zebras head placement and stance is the best aspect of this image. Cropping this into a pano will accentuate that aspect much better IMO.

    Hi Hilary, would echo Robert's comments, especially the crop.

    Fair points. One of the biggest challenges I find when looking at my images is how to present them. Sometimes you see something at the time of capture that you want to represent in your final image but others see a different picture and therefore their comments reflect that. It makes it both interesting but disheartening at times!
