Three on the Ridge

[Steve Canuel]

Went for a pano look and extra space to try to capture the openess of the prairie. 40D, 1-400L @ 400mm, f5.6, 1/320s, ISO 1600, +2/3 EC, handheld, about 70% of original image.

Lovely image. I like the detail and pattern in the grasses which gives the foreground a great texture. Also like the space on the right which gives a sense of vulnerability to the animals. The middle one looking straight at the camera really enhances the whole picture. It is just the kind of image I like so I have no suggestions for any changes. :)

Hi Steve, good to have eye contact from all three, and love the alert look from them too. Your comp works well with the space, and I like the clarity in the sky after the storm. Well captured.

[Chris Kotze]

Super comp detail and colours. Yep nice HA and alert look, well captured

[Ken Watkins]

The use of space enhances this image greatly, the subject is beautiful, the grass is remarkable, and the sky is blue what else could you need!

Steve,
A fine image. I like the composition with the open space. The colours look nice. It would have been great if all the three were looking at the right.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi

I agree with Sabyasachi - if they were all looking in the same direction it would have taken this up a notch. Still great exposure and composition - I get the feeling of the prairie as you stated.

I Like it Steve, nicely exposed with all that sky and with them all turning around at the same time gives the comp an intimate feel.

Hi Steve. I really like the light and the colors of the prairie vegetation here. The pano crop works very well and the three great poses top it off! Well done.
