Portrait photograph of a Cape buffalo. Its head and horns fill almost the entire image. More buffalo are visible in the background but of them we don't really see the head or the eyes. Only the nose, an ear and a piece of horn.
The buffalo's ears are wide to the side and a blade of grass is sticking out of its mouth. Its body is on the left and is visible up to the shoulders. The head enters the picture from the left.
