I took this picture at the Fort Worth Zoo in Fort Worth, Texas, on my digital camera, and then I played with the Brightness/Contrast and/or the Hue and Saturation (I forget which) in my photo-editing software to alter the background. The in-the-wild scape of the Fort Worth Zoo, plus the ambient lighting when I took the picture, certainly enhanced the picture of this beautiful zebra.
