David,
You take a lot of really cool photos and this is certainly one of them. You captured a really nice moment and quite sharp for shooting from a distance. Nicely done :-)

Best regards,
Mark in Santiago, Dominican Republic

I really love the hypnotic effect of the various stripes, in particular the head of the front animal against the one on the left back. And the little one is simply gorgeous.
For the photo, I believe the left hand side is a bit tight. Otherwise, the picture is very good with nice colours and sharpness.

Nice shot Dave, They all look the same to me, nice colour & sharpness, looking at your pic after a little while those stripes start to merge, I can see how a lion would be confused. Nice note.
Thanks
Santo

Hi David, those stipes do their job well. I did see the small one until I read dareco's comment! Lucky I don't have to rely on my sight to get a feed. I have found recently that if I upload images as they look "right" in PS when displayed in a browser the colours lose saturation and look flat. Not sure if you have experienced that here, as I think the colours, esp the greens, could do with a bit more saturation. To overcome this I open the jpeg from a browser to see if the satuation is right before posting. cheers, Steve

hi David

The black and white stripes stand out strongly even in thumbnail. Good composed shot at 200mmFL. Must be quite an experience going through safari.

This is a good one David, and first time i've been mooned by a bunch of zebras:)
Looks like the small one spotted you though.
Also a good note.

Hello David
The B&W stripes has a 'hypnotic' effect if I stare on them for too long. Liked the kid zebra looking towards you. I wish you would not have cropped the head of the zebra in the left BG, but otherwise a fine shot, with very good use of shallow DOF.
Regards
Angshu

Zebras are so photogenic !
You got them really nicely, I would have tried a square format here though - as the ones on the right are so far away from the others...
Beautiful anyway,
Cheers,
Cath.

Hello David,

Very photogenic beasts, what more do you need than stripes in black and white..!
Well framed, and I like the little fellow staring straight into the camera...

Greetings,
