The Charge

2008.06.10


One rhino preventing the other from crossing the road



it is eying me. I should have started my car and gotten out of there


This was taken seconds before it charged me. see the foot lifted and nose lowered. I have never reversed a car this fast in my life

I see, how all my men are lined
Only give them one more sign
And they are heading to fight
To fight for they right

And I raise my sword up high
So high up the sky
My troops on their way
This is a glorious day

Celesty

SheriJ Oh "Slow" I see you have just about as many smarts as I do.. Just alittle?? These are great shots and anything for a good shot right??
There is nothing like the thrill of standing in front of an animal that out weighs you by thousands of pounds while you hold a small Canon Rebel and try to get your exposure,Speed and ISO set before you are run over like yesterdays news!!! Love it!!! And I thought the Moose were big!!! WOW Glad you are quick and safe!!!
