Cool portrait -- I think it could benefit from a touch of highlight contrast. Very nice close-up view!

A nice sideshot of this rhino.
I wish the out-of-focus grass in front wasn't as prominent, but not much you can do about that

Pretty colors and light for this portrait. I like the ears going opposite to each other so that both show up.
