    Peter nice to see this mother in full stride with the baby behind her. I really like the colours and low light angle coming from the right.

    Stating the obvious it, would have been even better to have had them turned more towards you. Having never seen anything like this I'm quite envious. ;)

    this was quite a sighting...love the light direction here and don't mind them running slightly away from you, but wish you could have gotten both of them in the frame :)

    I agree with the previous comment. Nice perspective and pose. Light seems to be low. It must have been great watching a mom and calf. Thanks for sharing.

    Cheers,

    Hi Peter, good to see you back and posting again.

    The light is awesome and angle is good too, just wished to both in frame. Good at ISO1000.

    Thanks guys for comments, I am not going to complain about not getting them all in this frame as I got some nice ones when they were charging straight at me, this shot was when they stopped charging and ran off. I did get a few shots of them full frame but angle not great..

    thanks again

    Peter
