The first could be spectacular with that awesome composition but though the scratchin' is very interesting it somehow detracts from the beauty of the overall image. Not sure why. Second is a tad too sharpened and saturated for my taste but a very nice cature. I've had a few nice captures of the Rollers but never one I am 100% happy with.

Thanks for the comments!
I took plenty of shots at the zebra scene becasue it was such a beutiful day. The Zebra was cracking me up scratching himself.

The 2nd one I felt I was pushing it too far, but honestly, I didnt do much to the saturation...that bird is colorful! I will try and do a lesser version with your advice.

I liked both these pictures and the composition on the first one is simply cool.

The composition of the 2 zebras in a barren lanscape against the sky has created a fantastic statement. But then maybe if the rule of the third is applied with more sky or more land, the composition could be even more fantastic. What do you think?
