Congrats on the fine animals. That impala looks awsome.

I realy like the bird photos too. I cant wait, 51 days!!!
 
Gerhard, You got two great trophies there... It seems that you are as good with the camera as with your bow! I always enjoy your pictures :thumb:. BTW looks like you were trying to start a fire under that Impala's chin, haha! ;)

Ha Ha Ha,

We had to make sure we got the pose for the photos correct. lol

The little Panasonic DMC-TZ11 camera did a great job.

My next challenge is that big kudu in September and to get it all on video....
 
Goeie werk Boet !

Very nice animals congrats you can be very proud of both animals I'm jealous so that will say a lot as you know me well. :D
