Wow! So many GOOD images in this challenge! I am so honored and stoked to win a ribbon! I took this at our wildlife refuge just outside of San Antonio.
Thanks so much for the fun comments :)

I have literally been this close to one of these big guys in Yellowstone. I had to stop while driving as a herd passed by. I could feel its hot breath.
Congratulations Sandy!!!!
you are ON FIRE .. !!!!! ..
wonderful testament to your incredible ability capturing the soul of animals ..
many congratulations on the ribbon .. this image is just wonderful .. and looking at it i get a bit goose bumpy .. xx .. :)
This image is excellent, but... I think a bit more room to the right would have made this the BLUE. It seems like an awkward crop/size to me a bit. Still excellent, as usual.
Congrats Sandy, this was one of my highest scores; I just love it. I really studied this several times during voting trying to determine if he was alive or something in a museum. I finally saw the reflection in the eyes and was convinced. Great portrait of this majestic animal.
Another of these amazing looking creatures. Beautifully captured. I really want to see one of these creatures but doubt there are any in the UK. Congrats!
