Very impressive image , love the compo , light , pose and details

Personally Todd I would go tighter in, to really highlight the detail & colour within the image you have captured, I don't think having/showing part of the body adds too much and IMHO slightly dilutes the content. Although, is this already cropped or FF?
These guys are photogenic.

Post Production: It’s ALL about what you do with the tools and not, which brand of tool you use.
Todd,
I tighter crop would be powerful here but I like how you presented it as well. The head and part torso fit well in the frame. What I would have preferred is for the rams to have turned the head away from you a bit to (a) remove the shadow on the face and (b) not have the horn tip near the mouth.
Wonderful BG that goes so well with his color.
Like the pose, detail and bg. Well captured.
TFS,

Hi Todd, I think this is a pretty strong shot, however I agree with Robert re the horn protruding behind the face. Really liked the textures and curve of the horns, and the BG is perfectly complimentary..
cheers

Todd,
Beautiful portrait of a powerful animal and the single prominent color of the beast and bokeh make the image unique. The eyes of the RAM are very intense, as usual with this species. I had to look for a second to figure out that the end of the horn was coming around the backside of the mouth. Once I realized what I was looking at I thought it was kind of cool. Thanks.

Todd, i like the light, detail and sharpness, and the BG compliments the ram nicely.
Thanks for the comments everyone. Steve image has been cropped but should be able to handle a bit more.
Todd
Nice portrait Todd. A handsome ram with a complimentary BG.
Very nice! Love that clean background.
Thanks Steve and Dan.
Todd
