Another great Panoramic shot from the mind of Fred :)

Love the scene, peaceful, restful and they span the entire image. Excellent clarity throughout.

Well done.

This is another fine scene from your trip to South Africa. I have so enjoyed them and this one too. It has good clarity and the subject's are nicely placed within the frame.

Not surprised as its hot out there! Like your tight composition which still manages to give us a reasonable look at your location. Exposure and sharpness are good. Nicely done!

This is a spectacular scene taken of the buffaloes in South Africa. A beautiful tonal range throughout your photography. Your focus, colors, details clarity are all excellent. Your choice of depth of field giving us a great view of their habitat. This is very nice work and thanks for sharing.

I remember, as a kid, reading how they were quite a danger to hunters and I was wondering if this is the same species that is domesticated and seen in rice paddies in the orient. A very fine shot with great cropping and beautiful natural colors.

    many thanks again;
    the domesticated ones are very different: originating from Asia, they look like a cow with long horns;
    these African are indeed very aggressive but not in this area: we cloud get very close...

Fred,
A beautiful picture of the Buffalo busy chewing the cud as they rest beside the water hole on which the Thorn bushes & pale sky are reflected. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.

This is a nice shot of buffaloes. This is such a common sight in my country also-in the rural areas!. The light and shadows, colours and the composition have worked out well. Good effort!

Oh yes. To find wildlife search around the water holes. Great scene with these Cape Buffalo. They can very vicious from what I understand. Nice scene here as it includes the animals and much of the surrounding area. Well done Fred ~ Steve

    many thanks steve;
    very Strange: in this area, they were not at all aggressive like in other places like Botswana; maybe they are used to see ' (too many) tourists....
