Good looking specimen , love that eye contact here , After looking at these images I regret not shooting deers and Antelopes in Mara on all possible opportunities

Harshad,
With the possible exception of Impalla I love to get images of all plains game. They are after all what predators eat, and in some cases are far nicer to look at. I of course exclude Cheetah, Leopard and Wild Dog from this statement:)
Ken - I know what you mean about the impala. I think on my last trip, I realized on the final day that I had not taken any photos of the impala despite seeing tons of them. I like the pose and the environment. Maybe another round of USM on the head?
TFS,

Having the head turned towards you is a big plus. I think Rachel is correct on some selective sharpening on the head.
