SO very cool with the framing and processing here. Awesome subject, too! Zoo? Fav!

@amandal thanks Amanda, this has been taken today in the desert in UAE, between Dubai and Oman, we were just at few meters...

[Simply Amanda]

WOW!

[Maggiemae]

Wow, just learnt about the oryx - 3 species in Africa and one in Arabian Peninsula where you are! Great to see it here!

[Laura]

Great capture!

[Michael Smith]

You have just achieved a rare and EXTREME privilege; I think the oryx were almost extinct not that long ago. ...and it's a beautiful photo!

[Corinne]

@maggiemae yes I just learned it with our guide, it is quite impressive and we were very happy to be that lucky !

[Corinne]

@lauramalone82 thank you Laura :)

@golder365mjsmith I call it my "magnetism" ;) it's a very elegant animal, fascinating, this one was not so afraid to see us, but he went away after my shot....I was trying to hide behind the tree and not disturb him, be he heard me...next time i will be EXTREMELY more silent..... ;)
Thanks for all your last comments Michael it is always a pleasure to read you, but sorry for my lack of comment for the moment, I'm too busy enjoying my holidays ;)

[Tricia Kano]

Great capture. I have never seen the part of the world you are enjoying right now.

[Michelle]

where are you? Namibia? I'm in Kenya, heading back tomorrow. Wouldn't it be funny if we ran into each other somewhere remote?!

[Michelle]

oops, now I see where you are -- heading thru Qatar tomorrow -- will give you a wave as we pass over!

[Corinne]

@ridley I will be watching the sky ;)
