Rhino Thirst (79)

(1965)

Three White Rhinos came out of the bushes surrounding this little dam. I was photographing some other birds at the time and did not even notice them there until they were almost at the water's edge. That's what happens when you keep looking through the camera's viewfinder!

This particular location has proven successful for myself as well as some close friends of mine that have regular White Rhino sightings here, particularly in the winter months. The elusive Leopard has been seen in this vacinity quite frequently by tourists. Elephant and general game are abundant in this vacinity in the winter months and the afternoon sun makes for wonderful lighting, leaving us just enough time to scramble back to camp.......

Smart Sharpen or Unsharp Mask

I use Adobe Photoshop CS2 which has a 'Smart sharpen' filter. I used this and used a setting of 500% on a radius of 0.3 and used the 'more accurate' option.
If you don't have the same program, most image editing software have an 'unsharp mask' option which will give you more or less the same effect. The key to sharpening is to use a fairly small radius, I usually use between 0.3 and 0.5, then adjust the percentage until you're happy with it.

Hello Sheriff,
I tried a different look on :-)
I reduced H/S < 15%.
Slight amount of USM.
Cropped to bring more attention to the three..
