Hello Eyal,
Great photo of this buffalo and oxpeckers. Beautiful light and natural colours in excellent sharpness. Very nice POV, pose, DOF and blurred BG.
Regards,
Peter

Interesting photograph, Eyal.
Pity there's no photographer's note.
Thanks for sharing this Cape Buffalo (somehow it looks different compared to the South African version which is also a Cape Buffalo?)

Hello Eyal !
So this is kind of a bus or a tramway for birds ? Do they have to buy a ticket to travel on buffalo-back ? :-) It's a great picture, really. The details are excellent, and I also like the soft colors, the pose of the buffalo, the composition, the POV, and the general mood of this picture. It made me smile ! :-) Very well done !
Valérie.

Hi Eyal,

Nice pose composition and exposure of the young looking buffalo in its natural environment. The oxpeckers add interest and ae usually seen on these animals.

Hello Eyal,

You have nicely shown the buffalo in your photo. The way you have used DOF is very good isolating the main subject from fore and background. The birds and animal's back makes the image iven more interesting.

Thank you for sharing,
Cristian
