Superb use of DOF. Somewhat more of a candid, than a portrait, but I like the presentation very much. (9)

Superb portrait. Might be just one notch overly saturated, although the entire presentation is very effective. (9)

Actually, not horns at all. Those are antlers, which are re-grown each year and shed each year, in total. You are confused with other species, such as bighorn sheep or mountain goats, which do have horns.... that grow incrementally each year.

Only the male wapiti have antlers. Antler growth is minimal until the animals are a few years of age.
