    Hi Bishop,
    Where in Africa do you life? I went to Botswania, but would like to return to go to Kenya (Masai Mara) or So. Africa (Kruger).
    This photo is precious with a great title. Composition, fine details, DOF, interest in subject, brightness & contrast, etc. are all excellent.
    Take care, Bonnie
