    Very nicely done. Love the COMP and the soft light. With that handsome tree I would not mind seeing a wider version.

    Yes, some extra tree space would make a nice alternative. Although this is very nice. The Serengeti, along with Alaska, is one place i would like to go before cashing in. Love the full head turn.
