Beautiful picture of an Impala, JFK.
It is such a graceful mammal.
The colour of the animal is very attractive and you have recorded it very well.

Hi Achim.

The point of view is showing the action of the impala, it is also showing the details and colors of the animal. The subject is well framed. The light has a good effect on the colors. Have a nice day.
