The young Rhino was actually trailing his mother, trying to catch up with her.
Thank you so much for your kind attention & views !

hey Jagdeep,
Well that settles it - when young rhinos run there ARE times when all 4 feet are off the ground at once (that question was keeping me up at nights! ). Very cool Jagdeep...great timing and you've isolated the subject well from the background. I'm a little torn on the shutter speed you selected - I'm almost left wishing for more blur in the lower legs and hooves OR less (i.e., the action frozen a little more). But overall a really good capture - well done (again)!
Cheers...
Brad
PS: I guess the next question is: Can rhinos fly? Looking forward to seeing positive photographic proof of that!

Marvelous image Jagdeep, I'd love to have something like this in my collection :^)
Although I would imagine you didn't have too much time (if any!) to play around with your controls, I too would have liked to see more blur on those legs, enhancing the sense of motion. In any case, it's a great shot and thanks for sharing :^)

Cool shot of a very rare animal Jagdeep. Well captured. Have to agree with Brad regarding the shutter speed. Still a cool sighting. Well done!.

Nice action. Like the little bit of blur in the legs.
