    I think these pikas are getting bored with me! Last day Mount Evans was open, thought I would try one more shoot. Thanks for looking.

    Hi Dan , I like the expression , is that aggression or a yawn, nicely captured. Image is sharp and detail good. Pity about the bright rock in the upper right hand corner which is a little distracting.

    Hey Dan,
    I would just tone down the upper rocks a few points......but the open mouth and teeth of this really sets this apart from other Pica images!

    Hey Dan, how are those front teeth. Well timed to get the open mouth, yawn or aggression, it still works either way.

    Neat pose and super detail. Perfect looking color/texture on the tongue.

    Lovely perspective and pose here Dan. I also like how the dark patch of BG falls right behind your subject!

    Dan - nice pov and the open mouth makes this image. Those teeth look sharp! Some good suggestions above about the rocks.

    TFS,
    Rachel
