Nice clean profile. Quite an impressive horn, and I like the extended lip. I hope this one's still with us!

Ken: this is really a superb capture of a rhino. I like the sense of implied motion given by his extended foreleg. Most striking though is being able to see that massive body against a clean background. My only minor nit would be totone down or crop the oof grasses at the bottom most portion of the frame. Congrats!! Richard

A neat image, very well executed!
I agree about darkening the grasses, a bit.

Nice sense of power and movement in the pose, especially with the the skyline orientation. Good one.
