Canon D30 (remember *that* camera??), 100-400L @ 400mm.

Starting to think that my favorite African subjects all happen to be zebras? You might be onto something.

Captured June 2002.

enjoy

As already mentioned, a great line up! it would be perfect without the oof top right, but I guess cloning it out would be a chore. Still a nice shot for the motif as is Andy! 8) :)

Almost everything in your shot is zebra! I enjoyed seeing this, and the three heads in a row fits the motif very well.

Wasn't the D30 a great piece of gear? :) I often find myself working to recreate "D30" color in my 10D images. I even wrote an action for it!

thank you for the comments, everybody.

And yes, I sure to miss the color palette of my old D30. Sometimes I wish I had not sold it, and that I could still use it for studio flower shots.

Andy, Excellent image and choice for this motif. I'd prefer a little more space on the bottom.
