    Default Gemsbok

    Another spectacular animal of Africa. This one was photographed in Aus, Namibia, close to the wild horses. The sun was going down and all the horses left. I stayed around with my tripod mounted camera and used the very last bit of light for this picture.
    Comments are welcome.

    Very nice image Lorant. Nice colors and light, looks sharp as well. Did you by chance make any portrait comps as this pose would work well.

    Lorant,

    Namibia offers you some amazing backgrounds and this is pretty good.

    I've never been over to Aus, but would love to go someday.

    I think that if you tried to crop off the top eliminating the bushes and horizon this should look more powerful, but I am not sure if you have enough room.

    Lorant - beautiful late light and soft colors. I agree with Ken's suggestion too.

    Beautiful animal. A nice simple composition of an animal in its habitat. I also like Ken's suggestion.
