Bighorn ram

Nice bighorn! Like the pose and the surrounding rock. Really shows the rams enviroment.
Magnificent is the word that cam to my mind, Robert :)
Great pose, great surroundings....a very powerful image...but it looks a bit soft to me.
Looks like he could be doing a "got mud?" add (take-off of the "got milk?" adds; in case you don't know what I'm talking about!). He must have just come from a mineral lick! For me, the muddy lips adds some humor which counters the regalness of this ram. It does look a tad soft but the pose, setting, and beautiful horns are great. nice ram.

Milo since your the 2nd to mention this I looked at the original and its very sharp so I'm sure I was a just bit conservative on my sharpening...Originally Posted by Milo Burcham
Fine habitat image-Great looking animal-agree it could do with a touch more usm
OK I did some USM on this image....
The extra pass of usm did the trick.
This is a beautiful image. The pose of this handsome ram with the direct look is majestic. Perfect exposure and the orange lichens add a nice touch of color throughout the image.
Bravo! You nailed it. Now go and run "smart sharpen" :) Just kidding, just kidding. KIller shot Robert.
