    He's a big bruiser if ever I saw one, makes my little red stag look diminutive!
    I like the image, the misty looking background is appealing , there is some pleasing recession in the meadow and the elk looks well detailed.

    Well John, if this is from the same series as the previous posting with the suggested changes, looks like you are there with this one.

    John, this is awesome!

    Perfectly composed and exposed and I love the colours and tonality.

    Lovely detail and sharpness is spot-on, BG is superb.
    I truly enjoyed viewing, wonderful work! Congratulations

    Kind regards,
    Gabriela Plesea

    Odd man out again :) I love everything about this but for the meadow/bush line bisecting the subject ... Best possible solution would have been getting a lot lower ...
