Can I Get Some Help Here
by Ralph Kerr
A photo from Feb 12, 2013, YNP in a light snow storm. Wolf is from Canyon Pack, checked out these 2 Bison and is looking back at his (her) pack as none of them followed, thus my photo title. I know this is centered horizontally. My intent is to have space for the Bison to walk into, and at the same time show space for the Wolf to look into. Interested in all comments, but here, especially your thoughts on this composition.

Whilst I can understand why you kept the clean white snow in the foreground I do think it has the effect of making your subjects darker and harder to see clearly. Even though the bushes behind the subjects are messy I think I would have included a bit more at the top and a bit less at the bottom of the image (assuming you have it to play with)
I would also experiment with a panoramic crop to see if you can retain your space on the sides whilst getting closer to the subjects.
A rare experience for humans to see at close range, for sure.
