    That's interesting. He looks like a different animal. Looks like his neck is still swollen from the rut. Good choice of vertical composition. I like the in focus branch/leaves in front of him. Also find some of the angular OOF branches slightly distracting. Overall nicely done.

    Very nice.

    I think when they are wet it brings out more detail in the fur.

    A grwat front view, that's not the ordinary way we see them, but it works well to show his big basket.

    Thanks all. I like to go out looking for these guys when its wet and or very cold out, it seems like I find the bigger boys that way.

    You seem to have a knack of capturing these well in their natural environment James, another very good one.
