    Hi Morkel, like the light on the subject, just think it's a little big in the frame and perhaps a hint more selective USM, WDYT?

    Hi Morkel, definitely one of the better iso 800 images I have seen from the 7D. Love the light and the image quality, specially how it comes across on the buffalo. Also like the low angle a whole lot. If anything, a wider-aperture setting might have denatured the background a little more, did you shoot a variety of settings?

    Just what I come to expect form you Morkel - great sharpness, right place at the right time (lighting) and good framing.

    I would have preferred the small bush not below the animals jaw.

    Morkel - nice light and it's not always easy to isolate these guys. Agree on a little more selective USM on the head.

    TFS,
