Here's another shot from our recent South African trip. We found this guy just before sunset and spent some time with him. Photographed in the Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve, full frame.

Different but not in my top shots of yours Nate (of which there are many!) Sorry, I like the rim lighting but overall this doesn't work for me

I rather like this with the warm colors and the rimlighting.

Nice image Nate. I really like the way bontebok is backlit. The warm rim light makes this a really interesting image.
I'm a bit bored with making and viewing the typical wildlife portrait... maybe that is why this one does appeal to me.
cheers,
