    Whilst this may look kind of threatening, the dog is actually sneaking up to one of his pack to do what Dogs love to do, pounce on one another.

    Taken in Kwando, Northern Botswana, 23rd December 2011, the grass really was that green, it is the rainy season.

    Love the typical WD stalking pose here Ken, would wish for a lower perspective to take this up a notch, would that have been possible from this vehicle?
    Lush green grass indeed.

    Marc,

    I agree on a lower perspective, but not really an option, the Uri's are allready a lot lower than Landcruisers etc.

    Ken agree with angle, wish it to be lower angle which is often impossible. Good close-up wof the stalking dog, also like the detail TFS

    I really like the pose. Low angle would've been killer. The greens are indeed very vibrant! I wonder if a selective lumo mask toning down the brightness of the grass while maintaining the brightness of the dog might not make it stand out a bit more?
