Yes he is Steve...I was very lucky to get a 7-shot sequence of him hauling big-time a--!

I'm going to have some full file size images of this guy printed for sure... I think he'll make a welcome addition to any African Trophy room or any trophy room for that matter...I got several others that came out really nice too that'll make some beautiful wall-hangers...I got really lucky on this trip Big Grin



mrlexma-thank you sir!

Thank you buddy for the kind words...believe me replies like that are really an encouragement as I just took up this hobby as a means of creative expression through WILDLIFE/ENVIRONMENT type of shots...

All these replies help fuel my PASSION and DETERMINATION to do the best of my abilities...Because this is my first time ever at it I'm only discovering my capabilities...

So like I said thank you and everyone for their positive feedback...

Most impressive photos. I agree with the positive comments on composition. You have a very good artistic eye. Please keep 'em comin'. It's the next best thing to being there.

Thank you for your comments...I appreciate it very much and it is very important to me! I
engaged in WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHY as a medium to present my artistic expression...

There is a distinct style to my expression and composition is MOST important as one would imagine...But also my artistry will include the sublime subtlety of saturation and/or desaturation in an image or a combination of the two...Sometimes its just the opposite and I will want to preserve the details in an image and just keep it all natural...It just depends solely on my imagination and how I feel when I look at a particular image overall..then I decide what I would like to do to with it creatively and how far I would like to take it... Artistically I do not want to subscribe to one particular genre to allow myself the FREEDOM to move into any domain I choose...

Its gratifying to know that some of you folks are digging my style as I know its not for everybody...its not always THE WAY but its just MY WAY! Cool

I just thought I'd take the time to explain this here as I have had a great deal of comments and requests for prints on various forums where I've posted these images...

Thanks a bunch!

Aloha,

Ro
