Hi Andrew

An original composition, great idea although I think for the image to real work it needs to be a bit 'cleaner'. By that I mean no foreground grasses and twigs, and get all the legs in the frame and not chop off the side legs.

Also maybe just one animal shot in portrait format might work well too, especially the knock-kneed chap in the middle.

cheers

Sean

I love it! A very original shot. I see what Sean means about the 'untidyness', but IMO the grasses add to the picture, and the sense of being down low - a 'snakes eye' view of Springbok, if you like!
