Just back from a major PC crash, what a bore.

A really fine action shot, Ken. The kudu is my favorite antelope, partly because it looks so majestic and powerful. Capturing it in action against such a clean background like this would be a dream come true. The odd-shaped shadow of the horn is kind of a funky (I don't mean this in a negative way) added touch.

Excellent, to catch him in mid-air!
Fine detail, true colours, and a great pose, plus a clean BG.

Quite a catch! Great stopping of the action even the hooves are sharp! Color and BG are also right on. Thanks for sharing.

This is a great catch, Ken. Totally sharp and all four feet off the ground against a nicely clean background. The subtle shadow of the horn is a neat extra detail.

Ken: great josb of catching the kudu in mid air. The subject is sharp, posed against a clean background and had the bonus of the shadow of its horn on the body. Richard
