This was taken on my recent safari to the Chobe river in Botswana. We put the customised photographic boat into this inlet where a large herd of Cape Buffalo were feeding on the reeds on this floodplain called "Puku Flats".

Techs:
Nikon D800
Nikkor 70-200mm f2.8 VR-II @ 200mm
f5.6 | 1/320 SS | ISO-320

A nice line up of these beefy boys and girls doing what they do best - standing and staring!

I like this perspective with the animals low in the frame and lots of sky given the good clouds you had to work with. The tail swishing on the animal on the right is an important element IMO, to give a good sense of balance across the line of animals.
