    Hi Stu, do I feel a touch of Daja Vu with this image?:)

    Good detail, colour and perfect BG. The added grass shoot makes it. Wonder if there is a better comp?

    Nice to have you back here, for a while.

    Love the background, the grass sticking out of the mouth and the expression on the antelope. Beautiful clarity. Don't see how it could get much better for a head study!

    Killer BG and pin sharp Stuart, good detail & colour in the coat, with the grass adding a nice touch.

    Stuart Congrats on "Excellence". Again, the 100-400mm "nails" it! Held to boot!
    Sweet, love the colors, pose, and the "Lunch" hanging out of the mouth!
