A beauty but I tend to agree with Jake about the haloing around the bird. An easy fix if you wanted to clean this up.

I'm really enjoying your portfolio of Kruger photographs. Keep chasing these moments.

I'm just going to give you a blue ribbon for this epic piece of Hieronymous Bosch Albrecht Durer madness. Let me dive into your grass of horns. Somehow the vignette and the ridiculous title only make it better.

What a capture. But I just can't get away from the sharpening halo on the bird - it keeps pulling my eye there.

7 from me.

Bordered on a 6... but the horns won me over.

Love the BW

Such mixed emotions..the quality of light and the composition is so beautiful but the realization that buffalo probably do not shed their horns is a jolt and the dead tree a hint at the carnage. I can stare at this for a long time. It is haunting
and very fine art.
