Inspired by a posting by @Daysleeper40 I looked through my efforts from a day out to Port Lympne last year and these were the best I could come up with. Have been practising more and have learnt quite a bit since this time so I should go back to see I have improved !

1. Black Rhino enjoying a snack

2. European Bison on weed

3. This Silver Back was about to chase of some rivals and I glad I was not in his sights after watching him

Safari truck is a bloody nightmare isn't it! I think #2 and #3 are the pick of the bunch. One of the main things I would say looking at these is to consider your backgrounds - and if it is going to detract from the shot then ask yourself if it is worth shooting.

Thanks I agree but I am only just getting into this photography game and this was one of my first real attempts. I will take your point on board. Have you ever been to the WHF in Smarden. There you will get up close if you do one of their day photo courses. Best experience ever aside from a real safari.

Yes - but only on their open day. I would like to do one of their photo days though - they look great.
