    Is it 2 weeks ago already?
    I'm still cold and shivering and reaching for hot chocolate :)

    As good as it gets, 5 1/2 years Ram? Not sure I can count right. I loved when the did that and the snaking. Lovely colors and detail in the fur.
    I can see the landscapes on his eye.

    Dale,
    I like the background, eyecontact. The horns tell a story. Lot of details present. I guess it has opened its mouth to tell you that he is ready for the shoot. :-) The open mouth and teeth adds a lot of weight to the image.

    Cheers,
