Superb composition and tones.
One of the best 10 in the challenge IMO and worthy of a ((10)).

Lovely. Tack sharp and very well composed. Did you not consider cloning the grass(?) hanging from it's mouth? Still a 10 though : )

very nice silhouette, the impact relieved by the thin lines of the grasses!

Fantastic capture. IMHO slightly over sharpened. Still 8 here. Curious: why did you not go for a complete black and white presentation?

Very dramatic silhouette - try cloning out the grass hanging from his mouth though - its really really distracting :). 7.

This one is almost too good to be true. What a beautifully captured silhouette. The colors and pose and even the dip in grass to add a little interest are all perfect. Maybe a little grainy in the sky, but it works.

Beautiful sillhouette of the elk against the amazing sky. I even like the bit of grass hanging from his mouth. Very beautiful photo.

How many points is that?:) Very nice silhouette, and the line of the clouds seem to help the flow of the shot. Feels very peaceful.

great silloutte. Personally I would have cloned out the tiny bit of grass hanging from his mouth but that is only my personal opinion. Still ranks a 10.
