[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Just outside Cape Town along the highway you can buy all sorts of animal skins that have been legitimately culled and come with certification .. but they don't come cheap and the thought of some Zebra eyes looking up at you off the living room floor is not everyone's cup of tea ..

Matt, there seems a synergy here, between the three hides and the three clouds passing by the peaks; the mountains being interesting obstacles. If I may say the 50:50 composition doesn't really channel the eye around your shot, it's either the hides at the bottom of the shot or the mountains and clouds in the background. But it's a good shot showing what can be bought along the road side, with an impressive backdrop behind. With the amount of light you had you could have stopped right down and gained some focal depth. Just a thought... Nevertheless it's an interesting documentary shot full of colour and patterns.

All the best, Cass
