All C & C are mot welcome

were you using the D300 for some extra reach here, as opposed to the D3?
The mouth on these animals look almost comical, as though it were smiling, but I'm sure that confronting one of these guys would be no laughing matter.
I like the misty, diffused look of the BG. THe pose really shows off the armor plating of these animals and the green of the grass is a nice color contrast with the rhino.
Excellent shot Harshad :^) I really like the way the folds of their skin overlap each other, making them appear closer to Stegosauruses from prehistoric times than anything we'd readily think of walking our planet today. Thanks for sharing :^)
