Hi Dirk.
Wow! Great (almost obvious) choice of B&W. Great composition. Making just a detail of the Zebra gives it almost an abstract feel. Very well done.
Regards, Steve.

Very good close-up of the zebra. B&W sits fine with this animal. I like the abstract line.

Hi Dirk,
Everything is right in this picture - good crop - nice texture on his skin and of course a good choise for B&W, because otherwise brown could have been distracting.

Excellent Zebra shot. They are, as my friend Frik says, flat animals if you do not find an interesting angle. You got a great one. Rhythms, curves, contrast... - all very well handled. Composition excellent. Good one Dirk!

Hi Dirk

Awesome! LOve it!

The B&W could hardly be better applied for an animal other than the zebra.

Well composed and thought out. TFS.
