This is a frame from the same crossing as the previous B&W version I posted, just a wider angle shot and in colour, obviously.
I hope you like it! I know I do...

Techs:
Nikon D800
Nikkor 70-200mm f2.8 VR-II @ 125mm
Circular polariser (I think)
f7.1 | 1/1600 SS | ISO-400

Lovely Morkel. I wonder whether more room on top would help given that you have a few zebras up there. I prefer the monochrome one because it gives it a timeless and epic feel.
Cheers,

Hisham.

Hi Morkel,

Yep, like it a lot. Love the moodiness of the dust (it's not mist, is it?) and the light "beams" and zones add a ton to this one. I did like your previous monchrome versions of this general scene, but this colour version works well for me too.

Cheers...

Brad

I really like this one. Like my comment on the bison, it conveys a mood that one can feel.

Super cool. The dust and shadows add to the action here.
I would prefer more room at the top, but this is great as it is. Nice!

thanks folks
had to crop for rotation so can't really get more space top and bottom
Brad - yes dust, but "mist" worked better for the title, metaphoric mist if you will :)
