Beautifully timed, Ken! And I love the black stripe down the belly with the intersecting black transverse stripes. It reminds me of the old midline abdominal incisions sutured with thick black silk!

Really nice, Ken. Wonderful light and the perspective on the rearing individual is just right with the spiraling tension from turned head, neck and body.

Excellent action photo ken.
Nice and sharp on the zebras, and good separation between them and the oof background.
