A Hyena's Dinner

daven1986 · 10-11-2009, 12:31 AM

Taken in Tanzania while climbing Mount Meru. Apparently the buffalo died of natural causes and was then stripped by hyenas.

Sony A200, 18-70mm kit lens 1/400 shutter speed.

Certainly on topic - if a bit gruesome

I think this shot has the possibility to be a great image but for me at the moment the mono image is pretty "flat" and could do with more contrasty processing approach.

Thanks for the comments. I am new to PP so I can understand why I fall short there.

I think the colour version may have been the safer bet, but even so without the Hyena there, tucking in I am not sure it is right on the theme.

You will need to attach a version of your picture that contains exif or link to where I can find it easily (ie Flickr) alternatively you can email me the original to avfphotocomp@gmail.com

Thanks

Received the original image and unfortunately it was taken 29th Oct and as such doesn't qualify for entry!
