Hello James,

This is a great shot, the tree frames the lion and the light is good as well. The only nit is the out of focus leaves on the right hand side of the picture.

Regards

Riaan

Hi Kyle,
This is a great shot, but I must point out that this is not a Variable Sunbird, but a Regal Sunbird (Cinnyris regia)according to the Field Guide to the Birds of East Africa (Terry Stevenson and John Fanshawe) an endemic specie to Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi and Tanzania.

Regards
Riaan

Rob, great shot, some situations just don't need any rules of composition, exposure, good light etc. This moment is one of them, you could have messed up everything and it would still be a shot worth while sharing, but you didn't make a mess of it, again great shot. Riaan

Hi Callie, goeie foto, goed belig en die weerkaatsing is mooi, 2 vrae, 1, Waar het jy die lig gemeet en matrix, spot, centre weighted? Het jy flash gebruik?

Hallo Callie,

Ek hou meer van die 200mm se composition, maar die 28mm se beligting en kleur is weer beter, die groot vy moes miskien so bietjie meer links gewees het in die 28mm.

Goeie foto's.

Hi Callie,

I like the eyes, they are sharp and eye-catching. You mentioned the noise already, my nit with this shot is the branch at the back, but as we all know, you can't ask a leopard to pose somewhere else to exclude the branch.

Hallo Callie,

Baie skerp, goed belig, oor die algemeen 'n photo om op trots te wees.

Hello Callie

This is a great image with good sharpness in the motion. Even if the photo wasn't taken at optimum light conditions the light is still good.

Hello Gerhard,

This is a good composition of an awesome animal. Maybe a little fill flash would have lighted up the dark areas underneath the horn and mouth, it would also have put some catchlight in the eye.
