Hi Dan, I really like this, the rain streaks greatly add to the atmosphere and setting on this one. I also love the 'clam like' antlers with the beads of water too, a very 'Northan Exposure' feel.

I wonder if there is some Red/Magenta coming through on the darker areas & dongle (?). I moved both Cyan & Yellow sliders to the left, not sure if this has helped to reduce the slight colour cast, plus, and I hope you don't mind, but if you are inclined and this is not for a comp, then a little bit of cloning in one darker area in the BKG I think helps.

I guess and hope we will see more as this must be the time for the rut?

Nice detail captured Dan and those antlers are quite amazing. Falling rain adds to the overall mood. TFS.

The raindrops are a nice touch here Dan! I too notice the magenta/pink hue in the moose fur...easy to correct though.
Great techs by the way! Steady hand

Great looking moose, Dan, and nicely composed and captured! The 1/80 SS gave just the right effect on the rain. Nice work!
