Zebra action!









The zoo was closed and the stragglers (like me) were being asked to leave..........
How can you leave when the action is just beginning??
On the last photo you will see the wind up for a high impact kick! Those hooves
connected with such a resounding THUD that all of us who were watching had an audible
response! Cannot belive how hard they can kick and how tough(??) they are. I would assume
the one that was kicked is good and sore today!

It is a shame when two umpires cant get along with each other, fighting and kicking each other...it is a disgrace. Nice Action shots. : ) v

STUNNING! SUPERB! GMV
Gus Rosenfeld25-Mar-2008 07:12
Yeah, this didn't look like love making ;-) Great action work Debbie. I've never seen that sort of affair at the zoo. I even get depressed at the placid behavior. Just one picture from 'Mares Gone Wild' instigated this? ;-) Very striking and dramatic images, sharp and composed like you were lying in wait. Not, being herded out of the zoo at closing - good stuff. g

January Grey25-Mar-2008 06:35
