The image works better in B&W that Big Horn Ram, which lacks the isolation of a subject one usually needs to make a good image in monochrome. The Bison certainly stand out from the grass, although the latter is perhaps a little washed out, but that is more personal taste. The post processing effect did not, I think, add to what should be a good image and appears to have lessened the quality of the picture. I presume the effect was to create an image in the style of the early 20th contrary with the border etc.

Such a good grouping of animals, the away they are looking at you, slightly nervously yet almost threatening, is a really good composition, the symmetry of them is something rarely seen in nature. Perhaps a less processed post might be better.

Excellent! Love the Bison and the heritage they represent.

This grouping is outstanding! Not one 'southern end of a northbound animal'. Full faces, profiles, molting fur. I would like to see the untouched shot as well, I like the B/W for the hot bleached out areas of the grass and I see the early glass plate style, I just wonder about the intensity of that gaze in color or straight B/W.
