Wonderful shot in great light. Very nice. Splashes add. Nice one.

Fantastic light, great rack, lovely splash. For movement, I would have loved to see a frame where the left front foot is lifted...but that's minor.

How are those antlers. Lovely light, and I like the warm colours in this. The splashes show a sense of movement, so overall, well captured.

Nice looking bull. I like the warm light, colors look spot on. And give that elk some credit for making those excellent forward shooting splashes!
