 This Rhino was enjoying her morning bath at the Zoo. There was some reflected light on her face that made the image less flat.

I like how this does have a 3D effect. A nice combination of texture, reflection and expression here!

Well, I didn't know rhinos bathed themselves in water. They usually have dust baths - or maybe that's because dust is more readily available where they live. ;-Þ
The zoo where I used to be a volunteer guide has a succesful rhino breeding program.

What a cutie! I wouldn't want her mad at me though. A Land Rover is no match for a pissticated rhino.
You did have wonderful light for this shot.

Great candid of the rhino. Gives a whole new meaning to "turning up his nose". 8)

Sometimes I put a Rhino mask on and stand in Sandy's yard just kinda hoping ;- )

Adorable shot though - like Sandy I think Rhinos are great animals, and this is a really nice capture.
