Wildlife photography can be challenging at the best of times but every once in a while you find a very willing subject. A few days we had two White Rhino who were happy to oblige.
I have a fondness for photographing Rhino. They offer you the perfect combination of bulk, straight lines and round curves which makes composing your image so much more interesting.
By taking your time, and if the animals aren't in a rush to get away from you, you can take your time and compose your images to try and make the most of the lines and shapes these ancient looking giants offer.
Here are a few of the images I captured a few days ago of the world's largest grass eater.
I like each of these for a different reason. The lines, the shapes.
Somehow it shows the gentle nature of these giants in their natural environment - carrying on with their daily 'business' whether we are there to watch them or not.
Which do you prefer and why?
As always I look forward to hearing from you.
Until next time.

Looks he has one ear pointed to you. Does he know you are there?
Stunning sequence Gerry, I like the 2nd to last, the ridges across the Rhinos backs looked linked, simply great.
