    Very impressive beast, do they really have to grow those horns each year?

    Magnificent animal. The dark line is better than the straight line in the last one. I would definitely lose the white flower below the raised foot.

    I prefer the slight angled pose here John compared to the previous one. Like the shooting height you were at.

    Lovely image John, love the pose from the subject ( indeed he is beautiful!), POV as well as inclusion of environment, well composed too.

    I like this as presented, including colours. And the "misty" feel of the scene, adds to the mood

    Kind regards,
    Gabriela Plesea

    Thanks Tim, Yup. Antlers are shed every winter then regrown in the spring.
