A pleasant surprise as this bull swam across the lake as I made my approach, then fed for quite a while.

A solid photo of classic moose feeding behaviour Brad. You timed this very well to get the water pouring off the head. With the hind end pointed towards the camera and the dark body in shade it does give the illusion of a foreshortened animal. If you could bring up the darks a bit more I believe it would help. Alternatively, with so much of the animal in shade might have been worth going wide and have more habitat, assuming the habitat is attractive.

Great shot with the water streaming off the antlers. Nice that he turned your way, also. I like the close up and personal feel of this one.

I like the angle of the shot, eye level to the moose. Well composed and you capture the pose at the right time.
