One of my favorites, taken in Savuti Botswana. I used a pano crop as there were rocks in the FG. I would have liked the full reflection but hey I was very happy getting this

excellent poses, angle and light here Vivaldo!!
Just gorgeous...those expressions, especially those eyes grab you. Pleasure to view.
Awesome image Vivaldo. Great job with exposure and comp.
You certainly have been busy Vivaldo, excellent capture. Personally I would prefer more at the foot of the image and less above. Just bring the whole crop down, say have the height from tip of the ear to the top as presented?

Post Production: It’s ALL about what you do with the tools and not, which brand of tool you use.
You nailed this one Vivaldo. Love the light, color and detail. Well done.

ooooo Vivaldo, what a sighting and u manage to capture it to perfection.
Nice to have some good light on your subject, the alert eyes tell of their fear of what may be in the water.
No problems with the crop for me.
Well done Viv, you have captured the tentative nature of their drinking very well here, good low perspective too.

Thanks for suggestion and commentsI would have loved for more space at the bottom, this waterhole had big rocks all around it and had a deep angle. I had to take these dogs form a higher angle so not to include to much FG. I had to place my beanbag on top of the cars roof and sat through the window. :D This way I got the right angle and didn't cut off there feet.

I really like the anlge on this, color and the fact every dog has at least one visible eye in the shot. I also like how one is posing differently than the others. Also, great decision on the pano crop.
Great, uncluttered BG, good light, and great detail in the fur plus good head turns all. Well done.
beautiful image... looks a tad over sharpened .. but It might just be me.. !
Very nice image. Color, clarity, and detail all look good.
Thanks very much for looking and commenting it's always apprecaited
I would love a moment like the one you've had with these guys! And you made very good use of the opportunity
great shoot - hope we are able to see wild dogs when we visit Savuti in Sept
