    Brendon,

    Did not find any of these on my last trip, well not close enough.

    Great action captured here, but I would definitely consider cloning out the OOF Lechwe and the branches centre top.

    Hi Brendon, looks like the sharpening/colour balance issues have gone compared to the last one, like it.

    Looking at the angle of the water bottom LHC, wonder if a slight rotation might be worth a try (approx 2.35 CCW )

    If you are back soon, give Lizzy my regards and tell her I miss her company.

    Beautiful light with great mid flight action and associated water droplets, shame that the BG lechwe intersects.

    Love the light, the mid-air pose and the 3D quality to this Brendon.
    The OOF lechwe isn't a big deal-breaker to me. I agree with Steve on the slight rotation. A place I would LOVE to visit - is there space in your suitcase? I will clean your lenses in-flight too
