Great composition and exposure Carla.

I had to smile though because this image is in your "Wild Animals" folder. Maybe this one isn't domesticated but most breeds usually are. Regardless its a good image and I like it a lot. #1272945

Oh my, how funny! I didn't even realize I'd done that until I your post. I've made changes to my albums and she has been reclassified, lol.

Thank you for visiting and the lovely compliment.

Enjoy your day,

You Bewdy *CARLA*!

What an outstanding portrait of this iconic beast.
The lighting and toning give the image warmth and your focus and depth of field have rendered wonderfully clear, sharp detail.
That is one great set of horns and your composition shows them off extremely well.
Good to see by the eye contact that your model was fully involved in the production too. 8-)

Looks like Texas to me Carla. Great capture. Did you get a model release. #9090989

This image does have the look of Texas. But, it is California, Emile. :)(smiling)
I asked; she said no and got her point across... lol.
Thank you.
