Dear All


Heading to Bandhavgarh and then directly to Tanzania and then
will lead one group to Saat-Tal for birding trip. Thankfully
this Saat Tal group postponed their visit to month end.
Will be back here in first week of June

I am as eager as these Zebras to meet my African friends
Till then have a blast of time here

Nice action ! The ones on the right seem to be wondering what the others are running from.

A lovely scene Harshad. I just wish the lighting was reversed, i.e. direct light on the zebras/FG and the mountains in the shade. But I realize that was entirely beyond your control :wink: .

I like the contrasts here. The Zebras stand out because of their black and white stripes and your dof choice keeps the focus on them. The the brighter hillside in the distance adds to the sense of place without competing for interest.

Love this. Looks like a lot of speed going on there with all that dust they're kicking up. The lines of the zebras are a stark contrast to the rest of the image. Works well.
