This was in Ngorongoro a year ago - unfortunately midday - hence the black and white try which I actually want to print

Thanks Sherlock @JRajput !

Karl,  
I really, really like the action. The Zebra on the right makes me smile…he/she seems surprised somehow. Anyway ,there is a story here. Also love that you have good focus on all three, while the background is no distraction at all. Good call on the B&W.

Hi Karl !  
Good idea to convert into B&W. Before reading you commentary, I could make out that it’s a composite because the right Zebra appears to be on a different focal plane but in same focus.

PS. Including techs along with the picture always helps analyze it better.
