Hi Sandy,

My wife would pull out all her dog grooming supplies and go to work on this guy. It is amazing how much coat that they can drop during shedding season. Large view is nice and even with the bright copnditions, you were able to get a nice image with the musk ox in motion. Well done.......................Jim

Another very nice image from the Nome trip, Sandy.  I did like the shaggy ones.  I think I see some repetitive patterns in the background from the cloning.
