Thank you. I see where you are coming from.

A small herd of Zebra, 10 or so, had been frolicking around kicking up a great deal of dust before running off. The three in this image were the last to run-off. The "blurring" in the background is a result of all the dust that had been thrown up by the herds antics and I can't claim any "credit" for it.

Thank you for the details. Worked very well. Serendipity - photographer's friend.

They always make such good photo subjects and you captured them well.

Looks too close for comfort in the first shot Valery. How close you were?

The young bear walking to forest, the first shoot was about 15-20ft. A77-2 with 55-200 was ready at that moment, when i got a99-2 in hand the bear almost gone... I didn't take a chance follow the bear... :)

15-20 feet? That is unbearable distance for me. :lol:
