Hi Tobias,
This is a wonderful shot with perfect light which shows off these magnificent animals so well. The framing and POV are also great

Hallo Tobias,
The deep black lines over the Zebra's are beautiful, looks they were fresh painted this morning ;-)
A nice pose we always see to support each other...eyes in the back so to speak. I like your tight composition and framing, shows exactly what's important...very good.
Regards, Henk

Bonjour Toba,
voilà une photo qui me rappelle des souvenirs. Non, je ne suis aps allé en Tanzanie mais au Tierpark de Aachen où j'ai pu voir la fougue de ces animaux pleins de tempérament.
Une photo très nette avec une profondeur de champ interessante.
Best regards.
Daniel.

Hi Tobias,

One moment of nap on the defensive... These two zebras are detached very well from the background. I like much the quality of the image in particular clearness and good exposure. Beautiful and interesting work Tobias.

With all my friendships and a very good evening,

Jean-Charles

Hey Toba, wundert mich, dass das Bild nicht schon mehr Punkte hat, das muss geändert werden! Also hier stimmt wirklich alles, Compo, Farben, Schärfe und diesesmal ist der Rahmen exzellent gewählt, der hamoniert super mit den Zebras! Also, freu mich auf weitere Fotos aus Tansania, keep them coming!

Hallo Tobias. Ein Photo (und weitere vorherige) vom Serengeti NP. Dank des Tele lassen sich hier phantastische Aufnahmen machen. Vor allem das Photo Relaxing und das heutige von den Zebras sind sehenswert. Vor allem die Symmetrie der beiden Zebras ist ein Blickfang. Zusätzlich hat das Photo hohe technische Qualität. Was will man mehr. Es ist ein schönes und sehenswertes Photo. Viele Grüße, Wolfgang.

Tobias,
you are asking for any hints to take a better shot for your next trip to Tanzania? Well, the truth is that you already nailed it this time. No need to go back! The composition is a classic one and you did it very good with the tight frame, focusing on the two zebras blending in. Did you also try to get a close up abstract where you can only see the stripes of the two zebras and nothing else of the surrounding?

High Toba, great photo again.
I always wondered why they have such a color. Lions are disappearing in the yellowish growings, but why zebras are so contrastish? Great photo and it seems to be quite a journey that you had.

Salut Tobias!
Magnifique prise de vue de ces deux zèbres bien positionnés et avec de parfaites lignes, on dirait qu'ils ont été peints par un artiste. Bonne composition, excellente qualité d'image et bon éclairage.
Félicitations!... et bonne journée,
Emilius

It is wonderful to see the zebras in this pose. It certainly makes good material for a photograph. The technical quality is excellent too. Well done

Hi, Tobias. A very sharp picture of these splendid animals. You've chosne a tight framing, but left enough space to the right and left. I appreciate the fact that we can see some other animals grazing in the background. They also bring another range of tones in the image.

Hi Tobias,
I have no hints, as I can't see what could be better done, either aesthetic wise or technique wise. It's a extraordinary wild life shot, with great clarity and perfect DOF. You show not only the zebras but also the neighbouring antelopes.
Congratulations!
Regards, José.

Hello Tobias
Another fascinating wildlife shot. Looks like the female on the right is a would be mother zebra. Have you a closeup of just the stripes?...would be interested to see that shot. Very good work!

Hello Tobias,
C’est superbe de pouvoir photographier tous ces animaux sauvages dans leur milieu naturel plutôt que dans un zoo,
Tu m’apprends quelque chose de très intéressant ici parce que je ne savais pas que cette position particulière est en fait une manière de voir venir le danger à 360° !
Excellente image très nette,
Amicalement et à bientôt,
Robert

Fantastic moment, I love this zebra pose, and a nice green background, I have also uploaded a similar shot years ago, but with a very dry background and under a harsh light.

Hi Tobias,
Lovely shot, it is so tender! It would have been perfect to illustrate Valentine Day ;-)
I like the depth of field you choose.
Well done! Regards,

Hello Tobias,
Zebras are such welcome photo subjects!
You don't have to consider eye-catchers and lines as it all comes with the subject...
This seems to be their favourite position, well framed!

Hi Tobias,
Very clear African image. They seem to be taking an attractive pose for you.
You were luckly enough to enjoy photographing on a fine day, though i have heard that the rainy season lasts from March to May in Tanzania.
Have a nice day, Hisashi
