    Nice action pose Dale. Nice looking ram, looks like he's seen a battle or two! Exposed well and plenty sharp.
    It's been a while , hope all is well and you had a nice holiday season.

    Well captured Dale. A classic "in-your-face" ram action pose. I like the snow that he is kicking up.

    Peter, not to but in for Dale but I believe the bg you see is a hllside in shadow giving the snow a blue tint w/oof brush, rocks etc...

    Dale - beautifully captured action shot with a great mood and detail. Thanks for the clarification because I wondered what birds?:)

    LOL Peter, I thought the same thing when I first viewed the image, thought they were crows.

    Head forward, raised hoof, snow being sprayed from the movement, a very nice image indeed Dale with some action. perfect.

    Like the pose and the snow flying around the feet. Also like the chunk missing from his horn.
