 This is my son working at his business. He didn't (doesn't yet) know I took this, although he knew I was around hunting.

Funny thing about Barry's comment, is that I was attempting to put in a cropped version when rollover beat me by seconds. The upload bar was just a smidgin off complete when it was shut down.
Here is the cropped version.

Yup -- definitely the cropped version! And you cropped it exactly perfect in that one. Just above the trailer hitch was great! You would have beaten my by a mile with that. :)

Nicely seen!

(Did you try any shots from a lower vantage point? I'm trying to see things from different points of view, and I'm curious if you shot up at all in any of the outtakes?)

Congrats on the HM!

Congratulations on the HM! This was one of my top picks. I don't mind the uncropped version, I'm kind of a license plate fan lol. My dad used to collect them.

Cropped version ... +1 :-D Actually, it would have been a plus 2 on the vote (gave a 7 ... would have been a 9 on the crop).

I like this ... I would have REALLY liked it with some of the top cropped (say below the license plate). Otherwise, nicely done. Good luck in the challenge.
