[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The hippo. One of the most dangerous animals in Africa.
With 3 tons and a speed of 50 km per hour there is some momentum behind those teeth in an attack. This photo was taken from the bridge over the Sabie river

Robin,

A very Sharp pic that is well composed, showing great detail of the subject. The colour and lighting are excellent and not always easy with the sunlight and water causing reflections and bright light around the subject. The POV, DOF and BG are also good.

TFS,
Sheriff
