For as much time as we spend staring at our screens, reviewing and analyzing images, it's nice to finally turn a few of the digital files into an actual print! Today, I ordered a few prints not for clients, not for anyone, but purely for me...
Thanks for sharing these wonderful images. I recently spent several weeks in Botswana and returned with over 12,000 images. I too printed some for myself so I know just how you feel. The Kingfisher, Wild Dog and Lilac Breasted Roller are my favorites with the leopard close behind. Nice work...

Thanks Red, Dave, and Scotia. #2 is one of my all-time favorites as well... I'm excited to see how it will look in print (my girlfriend has already claimed this image as "hers")

Wait wait wait... Are you asking whether or not to print these?? Um, hello?
Now, assuming you've already printed them congrats. These are gorgeous. #1 is just unbelievable for me. I'd print it huge and hang it with pride. The gaze is just phenomenal.
The ruby is really nice as well. Good job capturing that color. I wasn't able to do it when I was there.
Thanks soooo much Ludwiga, Glen, shelleyc, and ajkessler!
Yes - all of these are presumably printed and will arrive next week (Mpix). I did decide to go big with #1, so he's coming to me in 20"x30" metallic... I hope it looks good.
Thanks again for all the kind comments. Means a lot.
I really like the Kingfisher (#2) at least I hope it's a Kingfisher... But my favorite is the last - - simply because it's such a different bird & so amazingly beautiful.

Rich,
Please let us know how you like the metallic print. I have been curious how these would work out for wildlife prints.

Nice work...
