Here's one more buck species from our Africa trip last summer. This was taken from a boat on the Chobe River in Botswana. The setting is one of the many large islands in the river.

Hello Nate

Beautiful tones and love the well formed antlers or are they horns?

Sharp and detailed, like the rest of your work!

This brings back happy memories of the Okavango delta and the Lechwe running across the floodplains through the water.

A lovely image with nice detail of the lyre shaped horns, and a rare moment to catch one laying down Nate.
