Photographer's Note
Photo taken at Caprock Canyon State Park just north of Quitaque, Texas. This park is home to the official State of Texas Bison Herd. These are the only remaining bison from the massive slaughter that occurred during the end of the 19th Century. For a great article and better photograph visit Wyman Meinzer's blog on the topic.

If you are ever in the area you will not be disappointed in visiting the park.

Hi Mel
This must be my first time visiting your gallery, too bad all your other photos are no longer viewable.
Welcome back i guess!
As for the photo, I like to provide honest feedback whenever i can, i think thats the best way to go about it. In this shot, the only thing that i'd possibly change is removing the top white area...what do you think? When i scroll down, the photo just looks better without that white band of sky.
the Bison looks great! Especially with the silhouetted light around it.
all in all, a successful photo.
see you around
Cheers
Craig

Hello Mel
Welcome on TE with this stunning picture in orange hues due to the low lateral sun. I would have removed the white sky, too distracting from THE subject.
Cheers

Hello Mel,
a very beautiful composition of nature. Fantastic job. Wonderfully captured of this bison. Excellent presentation of this place. Colors are interesting, POV and DOF are too. Thanks for sharing. I love it.
