ciao giorgio,
immagini dalla perfetta definizione quelle che ci mostri in questa serie sugli animali.
Ottima la collocazione del soggetto nell'inquadratura sfruttando al massimo la luce.
buona giornata
maurizio

Another great wild life shot presented here by you, Giorgio. You have composed the animal very well with nice focus. Nice original colour. Great light control. Very well done. Tfs.

Bonjour Giorgio,

Il a beau avoir l'air somnolant, on est quand même heureux d'avoir un 300 mm pour ne pas devoir trop l'approcher ! .)
Excellent cadrage qui laisse une partie vide sur la gauche. Couleurs naturelles et beaux contrastes bien captés.
Amitiés,
Roger

Hello Giorgio,

I guess this is one of those you don't like to meet in a back alley after dark..!
But then, for all I know it is a very friendly fellow hehehe...
A good portrait with fine details!

Greetings,

Bonjour Giorgio.
Ce gnou semble un sage méditant sur les aléas de la vie. J'aime le rendu de son pelage hirsute et la lumière qui baigne l'image.
Amicalement
Jacques

Bonjour,
belle photo de ce gnou superbe, net, bien éclairé, joliment coloré.
Valait mieu qu' il somnole, c' est plus calme pour la photo, la pose est fixe; elle ne bouge pas.

Amitiés Thomas
