    LOVE the cheetah shot!!

    Is the rhino one cropped or the original? I feel like their mouths are cut off a bit with such a tight crop. ne_nau.gif

    Thanks, you're right about the crop on the rhinos. I didn't notice that I'd cut it a bit too much. I'll re-crop. Thanks to you all for the nice comments.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
