Great pose, great surroundings....a very powerful image...but it looks a bit soft to me.

Looks like he could be doing a "got mud?" add (take-off of the "got milk?" adds; in case you don't know what I'm talking about!). He must have just come from a mineral lick! For me, the muddy lips adds some humor which counters the regalness of this ram. It does look a tad soft but the pose, setting, and beautiful horns are great. nice ram.

Milo since your the 2nd to mention this I looked at the original and its very sharp so I'm sure I was a just bit conservative on my sharpening...

The extra pass of usm did the trick.
This is a beautiful image. The pose of this handsome ram with the direct look is majestic. Perfect exposure and the orange lichens add a nice touch of color throughout the image.
