Love this image. Should definitely have been a top 10 position in my opinion. Could have been even better I think with a different size of the image (the dimension of this image doesn't seem right somehow to me, but perhaps it is just me :) )

Man, oh, man, Richard, you've done it again. I need to study how and when you go hiking; I NEVER see the things you shoot routinely.

I really like the feeling of this one. I know the subject matter would have bothered some, plus the falling snow causing specks of light. Still I really like it.

Very nice shot. White balance is very good on my calibrated monitor. Beautiful animal. Looks like he found something good to chew on. Very nice control over the exposure in this image. This would have been very easy to have gotten wrong with all of the whites. The animal is also very well exposed. Nice job. Good luck with the challenge!!!
