That's an impressive rack!

A touch more contrast might make it pop a bit more. Also, I think you should have given him a little more room on the right side. The head is the central draw for the eye and it's a little to the right of center with the movement going to the right.

These are just minor quibbles. It's a good shot.

Great shot!! Bokeh is a little mucky (but I like it!) so I'm thinking >200. Is it cropped?

It is cropped I shot this with a 70-200 2.8 with a doubler

If I remember right focal legenth was 320, f5.6 iso 800 shutter speed of about 1/500

I was 25 yards away, maybe 35 hard to tell I was close enough to be nervous about it

I I would love to give him some more room on the right but there was a tree there... good Idea though Ill look at it again
