Great shot and I love the cropping. Just a personal obs though... if the dark shadows around the rhino's shoulder were slightly lightened (dodged in pshop) and the balance between the horn darkened (to distinguish it more from the background) it might just lift it a little. Great picture though.

Thanks for your obs Paul. I realized I should have done this perhaps prior to B&W conversion, but I was a lazy old git and thought I may get away with it!!! 8-) I pulled up the original RAW and re-processed following your obs....much better result. I'm taking your comment as a slap across the wrist to not be so lazy in future! Again, an embarrassed thanks. :oops:
