Wow! Again, this is a perfect photograph. The colors are absolutely fantastic, and I really like the way the sun is visible in the background as it sets.
The silhouettes of the meerkats really increase the impact tenfold: it is quite easy to find shots of sunsets, and even some with silhouettes of animals, but this is a whole other level. I love the angle in which you took this photo; it almost seems as if you are a meerkat as well, hiding in the tall grass. <img src="e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/b…" width="15" height="15" alt="" title=" (Big Grin)" /> The details are exceptional, with the meerkat on the left being in full focus. You can even see individual hairs and whiskers. It is also quite funny that the two meerkats were mirroring each other when you shot this.
Overall, excellent! Your technique is magnificent and your ability to capture animals in moments like these really sets you apart. <img src="e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/a…" width="15" height="15" alt="" title="Aww" />
