Eric
good gear; not enough time
They are very majestic looking animals and your style brings that out nicely.
Take care,
Wayne
Thanks kindly Cristobal I appreciate the feedback as sometimes it is hard to know...cheers!
Thanks Eric! Means much! I love Point Reyes, but these were taken at San Luis National Wildlife Refuge, towards Merced.
Many many thanks Wayne! These are beautiful creatures but very nervous.....you get a moment or two before they take off.
Happy Thanksgiving to all!
Cheers, Sara
Thanks Sara! Appreciate the input very much! I agree on warmth. I noticed it and brought down the temp and desaturated yellows to zero.........should have done more......the last shots were taken in bit more warmer light.....but there is room to calm it further and I just stopped at wrong point.
Below are the re-work, I think I like them much more, but let me know if it is improvement. Cheers Sara!
BTW, the moment I read "tule" in your subject line I knew the pictures had to be from the Central Valley. I grew up in Turlock...
Cheers, Sara
Thanks Sara! Yeah that is very close to this area! Go by that all the time! Cheers!

Thanks Tony! Appreciate the kind comment! Fog is wonderful ingredient to have! Got lucky that day! Cheers!
I like them all, but the first three the best - love the softness of the fog.

Thanks Jim! I am overjoyed!!
Cheers!
Here's the shot that says Tule Fog to moi, a strong silhouette of the bull against the gray foggy, generally featureless background. So you have to go back ... (And take me with you).
PS- These are very nice. #3 is my fav.

Gary I know exactly what you mean about Tule Fog......
The central valley does get enough fog to try.......I have dreamed of it....
It wold be a JOY to shoot with you....we talked about it before.....once my situation settles down....I intend to make every free second count and one of those things will be to ping you to go shooting.....
Thanks truly!
It would be a great time. I'll even bring my a film camera, the Fuji GX680III.
