Frank pin-pointed exactly why a Forum like NikonGear is so much fun, so interesting and also so educational: we all see a situation differently, react to it differently and treat it differently photographically as well. Then we have NG on which to share our vision.
Armando mentioned the antelope: he is a Blesbok with dramatic brown, black and white markings.
The Blesbok and another closely-related breed, the Bontebok, were heading for extinction some years ago but major efforts of conservation have succeeded in reversing that.
There is a small National Park near Swellendam that has been created as a Bontebok Reserve. I have taken a lot of photographs of Bontebok there.
