    Hi Dan,
    I like the head on look with the body slightly angled like this. Nice catch to get him in mid-bugle too. Was going to head up there myself today but decided to try Mt Evans one last time for goats. 0 for 4 on goats this year. Should've went to Rocky instead:(

    Very nice image with good bugling pose and good sharpness and exposure. If I were to nit I would crop from the top to eliminate the dark BG and just show the grass. however, as presented it is still a great image.

    Love the head on look and captured behavior First thing I saw was the top area, fully agree with removing some of it, not sure all would be any better? Excellent image!!!
