Excellent shot of the Buffalo. Can see the frost everywhere...sure signs of a crisp winter's day on the prairies. Great detail picked up on the snow....I can 'hear'

it crunch as you walk on it.

Nice one, Dave! Hope you didn't get too close!

Thanks Tom - I did not look like a threat or food, they were not very interested in me. This was taken at 118mm

Buddy - this one sure works well in B&W. I can see plenty of detail in the animal's fur yet the snow is not blown out - super job.
