What a fabulous photo!
I have to say this is so cool. I spent a lot of time reading about oryx body part transport too!! Fun to think about you seeing them in the, er, flesh.
I think this might be my all time favorite photo of yours. There’s something about the angles of the horns, the horizon, the stripe on the body…the long grass. When I look at it, I can just imagine standing there myself in the silence, with the grass moving against my legs and the wind listlessly blowing my hair. It would make me want to lie down in the grass, shade my eyes from the sun and look at the sky…which of course would be a bad idea, as I’d most likely get eaten by a lion.
