One from my last visit to the Safari park:

Sharp detailed shot there, just not that interesting, sorry. The composition is too central and the bright sunlight doesn't help much it is too harsh.

Great concept but I agree with Steve about the shot generally.

Having now got the concept you could set something up which results in a hot shot.

Maybe if you waited for good light with dewy grass and used a really wide aperture (2.8 or 1.8) you could get some sparkle and nice bokeh on it?
