    A Tsessebe in the early morning mist at Duba plains,Okavango Delta, Botswana. Early mornings on the plains in the cooler months often produce some great opportunities to photograph animals in the mist.

    Really like this one, mate. Great mood and thinking behind it.If I had to pick anything at all which could have made an improvement it would be a tad less space on the LHS and more on RHS to include all of the sun?

    As others have noted, real nice mood to this shot. The silhouette is nice and defined. Also wishing for the whole sun, but I can't say I haven't ever clipped off something I should've kept in frame either. On the other hand, the slight shadowed tree branch curving up that edge helps frame the sun and minimizes the small effect of clipping.
