 Went to the Detroit Zoo while on vacation. Took a picture of this young zebra. Did something I normally don't do in processing, I cropped it real tight. Unfortunately I did not realize I could use 720 pixels. But it was too late to go back and redo. Oh well. It didn't come out as I wanted and with so many entries I do not expect it to do well. I just miss the update button.

Thank you all for you wonderful comments. If I had to do all over I would most likely entered this photo of the same zebra but cropped differently and processed differently.

I like the quirky composition and the overwhelming darkness foiling those white stripes.

He DOES look very bashful! I like the relaxing feel of this photo. Pretty composition and lines and nice bold crop. I think it works very well. I like the slight grain too!

Very dark. The face is lost in the stripes.
