    Default THE FEEDING PATTERN

    I do have some wider shots than this with the 70-200 , but I preferred this tight crop with the 600mm . The psychedelic stripes on the zebra adds a sense of mystique and confusion when there are more than one zebra in close quarters .
    Camera : Canon 1D Mk III
    Lens : 600 mm f4 IS
    Aperture : f 9
    Shutters : 1/1250
    Speed : ISO 250

    Cheers,
    Rakesh

    Very nice...Good IQ and I like the intimate moment...Whites a touch bright but a minor issue easily sorted out. Very nice Rakesh. Cant help wonder what it would look like B&W

    You noted that you had wider shoots so I suggest you post one in a new thread. Here I feel you need to create a tighter look for this to be effective. The top of the adult's back and especially the feet are cut at awkward locations.

    IQ looks good and Dumay mentioned the whites. I find myself once again agreeing with Robert that I'd like to see this even tighter, particularly with some taken off the bottom.

    TFS,

    Great light and I like the interaction. Agree about a little tighter crop.

    Love the idea here but would like to see this one in a tighter version for comparison. Also think it would probably look pretty interesting in B&W.

    Rakesh, great IQ, and overall nice and sharp. A looser crop will work, as well as a B&W conversion.

    This was my original crop for the image . But , I thought it would become too vague and so trashed it . Thanx for the BnW idea ...incorporated with this crop . The reason for the original crop was to keep that bond between the mother and the child and also to focus on the patterns .

    Nice creative concept Rakesh. I prefer the tighter crop but in colour. Good capture.

    Lovely moment Rakesh! I also wanted to suggest a B&W...for me your B&W crop is just a tad tight at the bottom? Maybe add back some space there...?

    I captured a similar moment from the other side - see here:
