Hartebeests at Sunset

I liked the silhouettes the hartebeests created on the ridge line. Nikon D 500 and 80-400 lens at 1/640, f/6.3 and ISO 140. Richard

I find this to be very nice. The left animal partly obscured by the small bushy trees adds a sense of mystery. Composition feels spot on.

This is a really nice sunset silhouette Richard. The composition is great. The gold is a really nice offset to the dark forms.

Nice silhouette, Richard. I thought the obscured hartebeest to the left to be a distraction compared to the perfect silhouettes of the other two, but Lon thinks otherwise, I see. Shows how subjective these things are!

I like this a lot Richard, a beautiful and different silhouette with the placement of the 3, one being behind a tree. devil
