brown mammal standing on ground

We were on our way home after a unsuccessful weekend at shooting astro. The weather was not in our favour, and unpredicted high cloud covered the skies both nights. After two nights of this, and the weekend coming to an end, we packed the car and got ready for the 5 hour, gravel road journey home. A couple minutes into our bumpy trip, we spotted a mature Oryx on a distant hill. I grabbed my camera in a rush, dialled in the appropriate settings, manual focused and snapped this majestic animal, seconds before it bolted off into the cover of bushes, vanishing from sight.
