The Eland is super, Jake – it's sharp, nicely posed, and beautifully exposed. Is that part of a road bed across the very bottom? Can't figure that out.

Hi Ron:  That is the edge of the waterhole.  I was in a hide with the water at eye level in Tswalu, Kalahari, South Africa.

Marvelous portrait! very fine detail, great pose, and extra oxpeckers!
The eyes seems flat, but could be easily improved with selective levels/brightness/contrast sliders.
