Hello Lyndon !
Wow, this is eally an awesome capture ! Your timing was excellent, as you have captured the HIppo at the perfect moment, with excellent details. I really like nice view on his open mouth and teeth, but to be honest I'm happy I was not there - I think I would have been completely frightened ! :-) I admire your courage ! Very well done !
Valérie.
