This winter I want with Jess Lee on his “No Rules Road Trip” to YNP. This was my first time in YNP, what a wonderful place for wildlife photography and fantastic tours.

George, welcome to NPN!

I like this image a lot! Nicely framed and catching this fellow munching on some grasses really adds to the image. A slight crop off the right side would make it even stronger.

Nice job - we look forward to seeing more!

Fantastic, George. Being a bighorn NUT, I am particularly by this guy in the snow. Nicely exposed, both in the snow and the animal. Not easy to do.

Welcome to NPN and the Fauna side, George! A fine first post for sure! Eating the grass and his pose make this one a unique shot - tack sharp and excellent job on exposure! Let's see more!!

Hey I remember this guy, not the best conditions but you did a good job. I like the way the grass leads into the Rams
face.

Nicely done. You got the exposure just right, and you got the focus right, too. I would agree that cropping a bit off the right side would help it.

Really nice shot and it looks like you nailed a potentially tricky exposure well. The composition works for me and personally I'd leave the negative space on the right hand side as is.

Nice image, the white space doesn't bother me.
