I think this is a terrific image, but I like this one better for the challenge:
Still, not a bad finish. :)

I really like this image and felt strongly it met the challenge. Super good rep of your chosen novel. I felt your processing was right on target. It's not overly sharpened. Excellent control of the exposure, too. The pose you have captured is a really good example of a Flehmen response. It's the manner in which many of the large cervids (and bovids) detect pheromones in the air. Likely. few city dwellers would recognize the behavior. I gave this a "7", but it deserved higher than that. Keep up the good work.

A six for you. I'm not a huge fan of wildlife photography, but this is nicely composed and somewhat comical.

This could have been a smashing wildlife pic, but the light on the animal is too bright/harsh.
