The first one is outstanding! Everything just works so well, the crop everything! Right amount of separation from the background, perfect shutter speed to give the sense of what is happening, exposure is spot on, colours compliment the scene. Brilliant!
Well done Marc!

Excellent but I think that the second would benefit from a closer crop. You must be having a great holiday Marc

The Wildebeest shot is sensational and enhanced by the crop you have applied to it. The DOF seems just right. I'm assuming it was shot at 300mm at f??.
With the second shot I would agree with Oneputt. A tighter crop would help us focus our attention on the roundhouse high kick.
Cheers,
Craig
