Great capture. How did you get that close? Great display of front and rear markings. I like the expression of the face of the one standing sideways. The way the three are positioned adds variety to the way the lines flow in the composition. Good work.

Hmm, wondering if you took regmar's advice and caught your subject matter in the sunlight to resolve the 'light issues?' Easier said than done, I suspect, as you are at the mercy of their movements. But, this is better. Simple.
And I really, really don't across as nitpicking here, but, perhaps you could have gone ever so slightly deeper with the DOF. As this image stands, it is a standout at full size ... truly. There is some detail that I feel could be sacrificed in the foreground and moved onto the Impalas. Just a thought.
Your talent is really coming to the forefront. And that ... that is all due to and credit towards the natural eye you have possessed all along.
Beautiful and graceful creatures. Thanks for giving us the lion's perspective here. ;o)
Hello Marietha......When we view a photograph of wildlife, our eyes always look straight to the eye of the animal similar to the same way we establish eye contact with another person and this you have done on the middle deer....The natural drama was there, just waiting for you to capture it.....Theres nothing more exciting than capturing a spectacular image of a wild animal in its natural environment...Well done...All the best...Mick.
