About Now I wouldn't fancy getting stuck on the end of one of those! I'd rather be bored than gored, though there's not much chance of the former round here at the moment!!

Still, the troops have arrived, (in the shape of mother-in-law), so perhaps I might now be spared the odd moment to breathe during the next few days!! :>)

Best regards to all, Chris

Nice composition (perfect cropping to the panorama format!) and obviously perfect exposure... without the blown highlights I often see on digital photos. Score one for the D70! Beautiful animals. Is this the Longleat "Safari" park? I used to take the kids there when I was in England with them.

Many thanks for the animal ID, Robert. I'd heard the name but couldn't a name to the face!!
Kind regards, Chris

Chris, you have a herd of Arabian Oryx, they are similar to our fawn coloured Gemsbok (Oryx). Now you can see why we don't have "running of the bulls" in Africa! These animals must think they are in heaven, because they are usually found in the desert or very dry scrubland.

Blimey Chris, if this is the horn section I don't want to think what the "WIND" section may look like ;-)

Beautiful image of these magnificent animals (can you tell I can't remember the name!). They are difficult to photograph as one can easily get hotspots on the white. I know, because I have a couple of images of them that are blown out. For the life of me I can't remember the name ... if I do, I will let you know.

Thanks, Regina!
I think they might be antelopes, but I'm not sure which species!! Maybe some knowledgable UF'er will come along and tell us.
Kind regards, Chris

Bet you're glad it's not the wind section Chris. Makes ya wonder how they use them horns though. Their heads would have to be bent right under to make a charge with them.
Great shot.
