Hey Steve, how is that light on the bighorn, and just love the angle of pose. You have captured good detail and the bighorn is really sharp too. I feel to make this pop even more, I would try and blur the BG more, above the line of the grasses. I dont find the BG busy, but my comment is to further enhance it. Cheers.

What a nice pose and sharp detail captured. The BG not bothering me that much.

I can see nothing at all distracting in this.

These are just too good, please stop posting (joke)

Hi Steve: A Steve Canuel classic returns. I everything about this shot and the background shows the habitat well. Composition is great and the bighorn's pose is picture perfect. Just a great image.

gorgeous lighting, colours and environment here Steve. I personally don't mind busy environments as it gives context, and here the bighorn is quite well in the clear.

Thanks all for the comments and suggestions.

Nice image Steve. I like the comp and the color of the surrounding vegetation. I like the mixture of light and shadow as well.
