A very simple frame of a Red Lechwe 'tail end Charlie' who decided to stop (hence the SS), but I wanted to capture the small herd running across a nearby channel, but as he stopped the rest then decided to stop before the channel!!!!

Thanks to those who posted or viewed the previous thread.

The "leader of the pack" from the rear?? Nice shot of this handsome fellow. That neck is so big, really impressive. I like your point of view that kept him entirely set against the grasses, that match the color of his coat so well.

Handsome fellow in a beautiful setting. Not a bad compensation for not getting what you really wanted!
