    Open Wide

    This Hippo was gesturing that he was bigger than me.
    Seeing the size of his mouth I was not about to argue!!

    What a great shot. I like the reflection in the water. Positioned perfectly for the rule of thirds with space in front of the gaping mouth to slam shut into.
    Bet you stayed real close, or completely within your transport.

        Superb shot. Well done. I am told that Hippos are more dangerous than the big cats. Any idea about the width of the jaws?
