    Another bighorn from yesterdays shoot. Thanks for looking. Always like that crazed look they get in their eyes.

    Nice sheep Dan. I echo your comments on the eyes. I like it just the way it is but if it was mine I would try tweaking the yellow saturation up just a tad and see how it looks. Sometimes helps with pop for their horns and eyes. If you don't like, delete the effort.

    Dan,

    This image has made me wonder about my glasses, it does not look very sharp to me.

    Thanks for the comments. May just need another round. Original is sharp.

    Dan - fun pose and eye. I agree about it needing more sharpening.

    TFS,

    Certainly a scary look to this one Dan. Like the punchy colour, but agree, another round of sharpening wouldn't hurt.

    Could you lose some room off the LHS, WDYT????

    Agree about the sharpening and taking a bit off the left hand side,

    Thanks for the crop suggestion. Actually thought about that, but thought I might get a little too close to the horn.

    Dan, I would leave the space on the left, and the intense eye does add interest. Sharpening mentioned.

    Like the head angle here, slightly towards us and just a touch tilted off level. In addition to the "crazy" eye, I also like how he's got he's tongue sticking out. Looks like he's trying extra hard!
