Hi Todd, love the colours and he is sporting a very handsome 'rack'.

Not sure how much you have around the image, but personally I might have a little less FG and more above and I might just tone down the two highlights, to the right & in the trees?

Nice subtle colors and I like the surrounding environment.

Todd,

Just a magnificent animal you've photographed here and the composition puts me right in his habitat. The rusty and sage colors are beautiful. I would agree with Steve to take a little off the bottom and maybe even off the left but still leave the great surroundings intact, especially those blurry pine trees....I like them. The image seems to be leaning a little to the right but probably just a hillside effect. Thanks for showing us this awesome beast.

He is a real beauty, love the soft light on the deer. Would agree with previous crop suggestions. Agree with Steve re toning down the highlights a touch.

Another nice shot of this bull Todd. I personally like the amount of OOF FG. It gives me a sense of small, rolling berms in this meadow.
