Jagdeep, exquisite light and wonderful “4-up” pose from this beautiful black buck. Those antlers are amazing, and the light on the stirred-up sand takes this over the top.
Just excellent!!

I saw the thumbnail and thought: ‘Jagdeep!’ - turns out I was right :slight_smile: Of course the fact that it was a photo of an Indian Antelope helped a bit :wink:
But nice action, I love the backward tilt of the head, at the same time as all four feet being off the ground, leaving a bit of golden dust. Beautiful moment and execution, and of course nice light!
All the best
Ingrid.

The subtle swirl of golden dust near the hooves of the blackbuck is fascinating. Surely, the light is just magical.

I agree with @SandyR-B , @Ingrid_Vekemans , and @sandipan about the light and pose of the Blackbuck, Jagdeep. But, to top it off, and add ‘intention’ to the image, is the ‘flick of the tail’. He means business!Wonderful Image.
