 There sure were a lot of big rams in this bunch. These 2 were butting heads when I got out of the car, but for other than some pushing and shoving they never really charged each other again. Too bad, that would have made for some great shots.

Looks like a stuffed Bighorn in a museum with that "pose." Great color, focus and DOF. Nice work!

Amazing shot. Good focus & DOF, terrific color tones, a really beautiful capture - they have such other-worldly eyes. Looks like a very natural environment too. Great job. 9

7 - Nice capture in seemingly natural 'environs'. Criticism; sharper, tweaking perhaps of colors, not sure, to try to gain more 'pop' and drama. Apologies in advance if wrong, but perhaps a very slight nudge rotation up on the left to get (especially) the 'horns' (don't know the correct term) more 'level' (even if just for shot 'effect') may have made this even better in my opinion.
