    I like these two the best, but particularly the silhouette because it's so unusual...

    Ed,

    I like them all. They each have their own special qualities. The first one has those stalks in front of the coyote, but the eye and muzzle are sharp and clean. The second one, as Dee points out is unique. Not only because of the silhouette, but because of the lighter snow in the foreground. The third one is very sharp and has that cool shadow which it looks like he's ready to pounce on.

    As I mentioned, I liked them all, but they didn't thrill me as much as the one I believe you shot right after the 3rd image. The one where the coyote did leap thumb.gifthumb.gifthumb.gif IMO, that's an NG quality shot.

    It must be tough having sooooo many really nice pics....lol


    Thanks for sharing these,

    Thanks Steve, I kept going back to the silhouette, was not sure what to do with it, I was thinking of a B&W or something, can't decide ne_nau.gif

    Nice work, e. The first one's incredibly sharp. A little cropping and the silhouette's golden. What lens and where?
