The light looks harsh here but i like it. The bison looks deflated.

I feel like that some mornings Gerald so I can relate! This image makes the animal look a really unusual shape so made me look twice. POV, background and foreground look nicely rendered to me but I feel it would improve this to flatten the contrast on the bison, especially to bring out more in the shadows if possible. The light was clearly quite harsh and unforgiving. Still a really interesting and enjoyable frame.

Hi Gerald -- Nice timing on this one and a nice caption as well. I feel you have handled that strong light quite well and managed to bring out the details in its fur. Slightly strong on contrast for my liking, also i feel the white sand in the FG is a bit blown out and in the process catching my eye . A bit more space in the direction it is looking might be another option but as framed it still is working . TFS !

Hello Gerald,
I like this, it just shows the sheer size of this majestic animal. Very interesting pose, great timing and nice techs too.
The light was obviously quite strong but subject well exposed, I would reduce those HL on the nose and do a bit of work on the FG.
Happy with the framing and I think POV is great. Subject sharp with good detail.
Very nice work, I gather you had a great time with Andreas and returned with some awesome captures, let us have more please
Kind regards,

Gentlemen, thanks for your feedback. Yes, the sun, when it came out, was not at the best angle, but I think it helped to show the different textures of the hair. Glenn, good thinking, I'll try easing the shadow from the head and horn, to give more texture. Haseeb - point taken on the contrast! Not much texture in the sand, but it's not blown - maybe I could knock it back a little.
Much appreciated..

Hi Gabriela, just saw your post, too!
Thanks for the kind words. We had a lot of fun, but frankly, as a 'Bison Whisperer'.... well, he should keep his day job!
I'm getting back into post processing a bit more again, so there are more bison to come!
Best wishes,
Gerald

Hi Gerald - Nice pov and something a bit different as far as poses. It reminds me a bit of a cat stretching as it gets up from a nap. Yes, the light was harsh but you handled it well. Good suggestions covered above.
TFS,
Rachel

I like the shot very much, the light was tricky but you did well. You may find reducing the contrast just a little in DPP helps.
