The Blue Wildebeast walks for long distances to get to a place where they can get water and then they they walk all the way back to the place where they were busy feeding.

Great action shot! I like the bird that is swooping in, in the lower left corner.
nice sharpness. The sky, is a little bright and the ground a little dark, for me. I hope you like my worshop.
well done,
Shelby

Hello Ben,
Wow, this is another beautiful wild life shot. I love the bird which happens to pass in the frame and this dust left. This is well exposed with great POV, good shutter speed, nice composition and this sky is superb. Well seen! Thanks,
Claudine
