"My Best Side," He Said Slyly

Zebras have so much personality even if they are simply standing still. They me be the most fun of all animals to photograph. This is one more from my zoo excursion on Sunday.
I've appreciated your comments and favs on the lion and the bear -- thank you!

[Marnie]

Stop it, I've just spluttered in my coffee!! Hilarious. Love the stripes on zebras even if they do make my eyes go funny.

[Sue Hecker]

Wow, love the textures from the tail to his nose. Interesting perspective and I like that you got him looking back towards you. Very cool shot of a very cool animal.

[Mike Gifford]

Nice tail....hmmmm...maybe not the right choice of words...great looking Zebra!

[Graeme Stevens]

superb shot...hope that end doesn't smile at me though...

[Diana]

A fabulous shot of this beautiful animal. Wonderful details and textures, fav!

[PhylM-S]

Super shot!

[Nicole Campbell]

He is beautiful, nice composition

[Tony]

Beautifully captured. Question : Are they white with black stripes or black with white stripes ?? Fav

[Babs]

Do these stripes make my bum look big?

[Issi Bannerman]

Beautifully captured! Great light.

[Debbie]

They sure do have a very interesting derriere 😅😅

[Trinda Love]

Fav! Stripes so different from the ones I’ve seen. I love this shot so much

[April]

Love those stripes!

[Inga Johansson]

His eye says -I don't care about you, but his ear says something else.

[Pam Knowler]

I love zebras so much! Fabulous capture showing his wonderful stripes and patterns! A brilliant sequence from your zoo visit! Fav!

[Delwyn Barnett]

Love the markings on zebras! A nice simple dark background to show off the stripes.

[sally agnew]

Love the pov, great shot :)

[Margo]

Great stripes!!

[Mave]

Great! Looks like one of those "inkblot" things

[elkehochban]

hahaha - his expression seems to be saying, "you're not really taking shots of my butt, are you?"

[Francoise]

love interpretations of animal expressions

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Excellent shot and interesting pov.

[Karly]

Wonderful ....really makes me smile!

[gloria jones]

Outstanding capture...Maybe its the best view to see the amazing stripe patterns :)

[Richard Hickey]

Awesome picture.

[Lynda McG]

Love it! Fav

[Rosie Kind]

One of my favourite animals! Fav

[Joyce]

Very clever and fun Taffy Fav

[Lee]

Great POV, very artistic image.

[carol white]

Great perspective, a super capture. Fav!! 😀

[Cathrine Mitchell]

He's got his eye on you.

[Kathie]

And the stripes go all the way around. LOL. They say, like fingerprints, zebras striping is individual. Not sure if that's true.

[Elisabeth Sæter]

Fabulous shot. Fav

[Tom]

Your title made me smile and laugh at this wonderful composition

[Suzanne]

Just a glimpse of a smile from him, Fabulous shot

[Helen Jane]

Well who wouldn't want to show off a coat like that - especially from behind. Another great one from the zoo.

[Alison Hewitt Bailey]

Great observation and capture - good idea to showcase the patterns of the zebra's hide on its rear. The complex, almost-symmetry of those op art stripes is, well, art!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

No tail-gating on this guy! You'll need glasses if you get too close to those stripes (and that's just the beginning of the dangers!). Great shot!

[Tunia McClure]

Those stripes are really fascinating.

[Lou Ann]

I love him looking back at you. Aren’t zebras just the coolest animals?

[Harry J Benson]

good detail and he is cognizant of you.

[eDorre]

Haha! Great POV! Love to look at the stripes!

[Diane]

Wonderful shot!

[Jane Pittenger]

You have such an eye for lines. Never would. Have thought to shoot a butt view but the wonderful lines and symmetry are perfect

[Taffy]

@jgpittenger Thanks so much! It was funny to realize my best shot of the zebra was this weird POV. The ones with the whole animal in the scene really didn't have anything interesting (except stripes).

[Sheralee S]

Fantastic shot, love the lines, but to top it off you caught his eye.

[Leon Buijs]

Great image, I too love shooting zebra (with a camera)

[Islandgirl]

Ha Ha Great pov Taffy!

[tony gig]

Wonderful capture.

[Marloes]

Haha. Lol. Great comp from my favorite animal. Fav

[Louise & Ken]

Beautiful! This makes me think of the illustration of the radio antenna sending out sound waves!

[CC Folk]

Gorgeous! I missed so much when I was down with a nasty head cold! Fav.
