Nice mid-stride pose with one foot almost off of the ground, the hint of a catchlight, and you got he tail in (barley). I realize this was shot in 2014, and I’m sure if you shot it today you would select a lower shooting angle. Nice image, Dean.

Sold an old camera bag and the buyer found a long lost Compact Disc in a tear in the lining and returned it to me. Much fun reliving my trip to S. Africa. As to the angle, getting out of the vehicle in Kruger to get a better angle is prohibited so shots of low ground species obviously suffer.
