Exposure: ISO:400 f/6 1/1600 157 mm (35mm equivalent)

- This is a good capture of moving animals. Their eyes are sharp with catchlights and there is good definition in the fur. The background is somewhat blurred out so the animals are made more prominent. The maker might consider a looser crop so they have more space into which they can move. The looser crop would also avoid cutting off the hoof of the animal on the left. A good monochrome conversion.
- superb photo of the trio. Black and white works but still missing the drama this photo deserves. Consider dodge and burn layer to add the drama
- You made a routine shot special. Legs are open. Good sense of movement and place. Well done.
- Great texture in the coats, excellent exposure on these young bighorn males. Slight motion blur in the hooves of the foreground animal. Composition could be improved by including right front hoof & left rear leg of foreground bighorn. If this is not possible, crop out more of the animal just beyond a major joint, such as to left of hips. This capture has lots of action.
