Thank you :)

Baby rhino running rings around it’s mum and dad. It was so funny; looked like a puppy running up and down the hill, over to us and back to his parents then back to us again. Neowng!

Here he is again – he’s skipped the ditch
A collaboration between Sam Cole-Surjan and I. Sam took the bush shot in Tolmey, near Mansfield Australia. I played with it and made The Yellow Dirt Road Then I added young Skippy here (sounds alot easier than it was).

Hey! That’s my blood! Give it back!
