Thanks for your nice critique on "SUNSET 1"

A very majestic shot Christan! Love the blue, brown and white here! Looks like a neat place to visit! You would be bored out of your mind with Houston..there is nothing to see in the city.....B-)

WOW, that's a very nice shot Christan, Ilove the mountain at the back... Oh, I mean I like the front view too, but the mountain textures is the one that captured me the most, excellent sharpness, details and lighting, good shot my dear


Have a nice day,

Cheers,
Sweety

No really, what Thor is saying was my sentiment exactly, the sheep seems like a stuffed cuddly toy.
Hi Christan,
Maybe it is for you an everyday sight - but that BG (well chosen in the composition) is just wonderful. Would not mind being there!

Hello again Christan
They are a friendly lot around the hotel. I'm reliving our visits through your current series. This guy is perfectly framed against the mountain. Great colors.

Hi Christan, the little Bighorn stands so well against the mountain BG. Well posed and captured.
When my children were little we had a book called "Buford, the little Bighorn". It's funny how it came to my mind when I saw your photo!!
Thank you for sharing
Janice

Excellent details with amazing colours. It is wonderful image with great sharpness.
Best wishes,
Achim

Hello Christan,
I suppose they are wild sheep, otherwise this guy would be a great candidate for my sheep theme, hehehe!
Great pose and the animal is captured with fine details, and the favourite habitat makes a wonderful background!
Greetings,

Hi Christian,
Excellent photo of this sheep.
Excellent POV with the mountain in background.
Somptuous colors, light and contrast.
It's very neat and natural.
Congratulations,
Stephane.

Otto pointed me in the right direction, indeed, Christan. He is absolutely correct this is delightful. I love the pose and the background is a perfect compliment that is so well highlighted. I love the light you have here. Really nice work.
Warm Regards

Hi Christan,
Browsing your gallery, this one really caught my attention. The relatively low angle composition with the beautiful blue mountain as a backdrop are making the sheep, a proud subject. He looked great!! Very nice shot.
Regards,
Ramdan.
