    This is a male adult BB. Their coat is ashy/sooty grey/black in colour and glisten in sunlight. Some rocks cloned out and cropped for composition.

    Hi Sanjeev -It was nice of him to pose for you on the ridge. I like the comp and the colors. I do still think it is slightly oversharpened because the horn also looks oversharpened. Does it need a bit of ccw rotation?

    TFS,
    Rachel

    Nice shooting angle and great clear BG and surroundings so the subject pops nicely. I must say I do feel the buck is a bit over sharpened but thaw easily fixable. I love their spiralled horns.

    Hi Sanjeev, like the previous image, it looks too contrasty with the Blacks being quite dominant and choking the detail, likewise backing off on the sharpening. Agree on the slight rotation and personally I would lose that rock where the rear leg intersects.

    Hi Sanjeev , nice buck within a good comp .Like the overall colors and tones. Agree about contrast and sharpness with the above said.The rock does look like a bird and yes it can go , but no deal breaker

    Nice side-on pose here Sanjeev. I agree that this one is a tad overcooked on sharpening, plus1 on the rotation too
