Two Very Surprised Antelopes!
Lens: 55-300mm Camera: K-30 Photo Location: Okhla Bird Sanctuary, NCR, India ISO: 200 Shutter Speed: 1/125s Aperture: F5.8

These Neelgai (antelope) females were startled to see me as they emerged from behind two trees. I was sitting on the swamp edge at Okhla Bird Sanctuary in New Delhi, India shooting birds.

"What are you doing here?" they seemed to have said.

Their expressions are so right on for coming upon you unexpectedly. Good catch.

(Funny, that's the same response I get when I wear a Speedo to the beach.)

Thanks slowpez, jjdog2, civano, gifthorse, lesmore49 and tessfully. No doubt a lucky capture! The lesson for me is - I wouldn't have got it if I hadn't stepped out of my home.

Did you disturb them in the midst of something?
