Great shot. Nice composition and it is very sharp. Buffalo always seem pretty sleepy to me and this one seems to be needing that afternoon siesta.

The shot has a slight red/orange tinge (maybe you did this on purpose) I did a workshop on it for that... Hoop nie jy gee om nie.

Very nice shot Gerthard. This buffalo is very impressive and the picture give the impression very well. The colors is very warm, it is very great for me in Québec were the temperature is around 9 celcius. Thanks for the warmup you give to me.
Well done. Sébastien

Amazing creature, Gerhard, in your backyard you say???

Incredible composition, I very much like that the focus is on the top instead of the entire animal.

Beautiful lighting, colors, BG, POV, and eye contact.

Thank you so much for sharing it.
