67 Nov 22 Comment Agree on the crop and resizing look better, thanks.

Frank - drought didn't hamper crossings, but 100+ vehicles at crossing points every time a small herd gathered did. I was astounded. My driver/guide was an experienced Masai/photographer/ecologist who respected the animals. We sat on a hill and observed (me in horror) the idiots who flocked to potential crossing activity only to drive the herd away. This happened numerous times. We finally caught one small zebra herd alone on the Mara side of the river. I loved the whole trip, except for those experiences.

67 Nov 22 Comment Nice work, David. Definitely appropriate for B&W. I like your cropping and post-processing. Nov 15th
67 Nov 22 Comment Hi Richard: Ditto on the foliage. Great timing on the image. Perfectly sharp in all aspects. I have that camera/lens combo, and even though I switched to all mirrorless, I made an exception for that kit because I love its brilliance for nearby wildlife. Nov 15th
67 Nov 22 Comment Hi Larry: That was a lot of work, but it paid off. Great diagonal line from top right to lower left. Your idea to include the running water trails made the photo. The notch in the rock cliff formed by the river over the ages caught my eye, especially since you could see through it to the river upstream towards the upper portion of the falls. It piqued my imagination, causing a desire to see even more. Nov 15th
67 Nov 22 Comment Cindy: There's nothing left for me to say. Beautiful bear. Lucky you going to Svalbard! Nov 15th
67 Nov 22 Comment Frank: I really like this photo. The colors of the fur, the facial skin, and the eyes all are special. Although we cannot see the top adult's face, it is clearly grooming the adolescent. The baby asleep in mama's arms is an exceptional capture. The look at the camera from the bottom juvenile is absolutely terrific and brings the presence of the cameraman into the scene without disturbing the family. This is a beautiful image of a Proboscis family in the wild. Nov 15th
67 Nov 22 Comment Hi Michael: The Northern Flicker is one of my favorite birds in my backyard. That has shown me how hard it is to capture a photo of one that is on a natural(rather than a feeder) background. I won't pile on the remarks already made. I think the bird is great. Everything else in the photo is annoying. I think a very dark background mask might have helped. Nov 15th
