Daily Photo: Rhino Close Up

Rhino Close Up by Gerry van der Walt

Rhino Close Up

Madikwe Game Reserve

(Nikon D300, Sigma 50-500 @ 300mm, 1/400, f/8.0, ISO 640)

___________________________

Shot this image a few months ago but recently found it and included in a magazine article I wrote on black and white wildlife photography.  Rhino and elephant are made to be photographed in black and white as the texture on the skin just comes alive.  What also adds to the impact is the  tonal range of almost pure black to pure white and tight framing.  Shot this one full frame.  No cropping.

More soon.
