    Default Dik-dik

    This fellow was photographed in Namibia in the early morning; the couple was standing in the shade of the bushes. Here is one of them. Comments are welcome.

    Nice hair-do on this little guy. You gotta love the eyes these have. Well compose in this feeding pose. Perhaps a slight boost in contrast to give just a bit more punch. Well done.

    Always hard to get clear shots of these guys and I would prefer not to have the muzzle covered. It looks a little soft on my monitor but that could be lack of contrast as Todd indicates. TFS

    Lorant,

    Was this taken on the famous Dikdik drive?

    Lokks like you were not blessed with the best of light.

    Agree on the boost to contrast.

    Lorant - Like the eye and the feeding behavior. Agree with the others on the boost of contrast. Perhaps another round of sharpening too.
