[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The cowlike eland is the world's largest antelope and is the animal most often depicted in the early rock art of East Africa. Even today, it still holds an important place in the mythology of some southern African tribes.

Although eland groups are not very stable and animals move from one to another, a dominance hierarchy that is usually based on size, strength and age does exist.

Photo taken at the African Lion Safari park in southern Ontario.
Most of my pictures are taken through the closed car window for safty reason.

Hallo Sky,
Deine Kritik schreibe ich noch. Dann gehe ich mit meiner Grippe ins Bett, in der Hoffnung, wenigstens diese Nacht ein wenig zu schlafen.
Ich nehme an, dass es sich um eine Gruppe "Kahlwild" der Orix-Antilope handelt. Kahlwild darum, weil sie keine Hörner (Antilope, Gazelle, Reh) bzw. Geweih (Hirsch) oder Schaufeln (beim Elch) tragen. Auch die Jungtiere fallen unter diesem Begriff. - Sehr schöne, klar strukturierte Aufnahme. Sehr gute Schärfe, tiefer Blickwinkel und natürliche Farben. Danke für dieses sehr schöne Foto.
Gruß
Heinz

Hi Sky

A very beautiful picture of these undisturbed and beautiful anilopes.
The natural colors look great here and low POV is simply excellent - it gives such an amazing perspective!
The stripes on this first one are very nice, the details and DOF of the overall photo are great and the framing and composition is very beautiful.

Bravo and TFS
Horia

beautiful, like the POV and the position of all the eland ,focusing on the one in the foreground but yet seeing so many others. nice colors and sharpness for a window shot! TFS
Donna :o)

Thanks for your comments on Where has all the water gone?

Hi Sky,
An excellent shot on this small group of Eland. Good job getting a clear sharp shot thru your car window. I like the overall composition with the one Eland up higher on the right. Colors and detail look excellent.
