I love the dreamlike quality of the background. Great catch of the zebras in action.

It was a moment when there was only you and I, when I didn't know which stripes were yours and which were mine. Sunlight fell on us like rain and we danced in its puddles. We trust our memory of such moments because otherwise we wouldn't dare to believe they could exist.

There is a magic to the way you edited this. It doesn't seem real. I'm giving you the Posthumous Red Ribbon.

Awesome picture, and I'm not a big fan of animal shots.

Really interesting shot.

I'm not sure about some of the PP, but the Zebra's stand-out beautifully and look great :- )

Very nice, one thing that I disliked however was the toning, would've loved to see it in b/w or colour.

oh wow!
LOVE the duotone/sepia for this as it reminds me of some olf African Safari images from 100 years ago
Love the drama in the shot
Did you use IR for this?
Love the light and shade, you really made the most of this image in the edit...
I was going to guess this as a lesley Goodman image, but not sure...
