Well taken of this great looking bull. I like where you have the line of green/blue crossing the photo. Great detail and color. If anything would like just a bit more at the top, horns look just a tad crowded. Thanks for sharing. Great photo.

The handsome pose and good techs give this a field guide type quality. The bird (cattle egret?) draws my eye somewhat and I am not sure if that is a positive as a secondary point of interest or a minor distraction...probably determined by how one would want to use the image. I agree with a little more space if you have it.

Adult male kudus are impressive animals. You've captured plenty of detail and have placed him against a clean background. Could go either way about the cattle egret, but it does give scale. Richard

Thanks everybody for your comments, interesting to see the comments about the room at the top, This is almost full frame, but it would be relatively easy to add some at the top, I will give it a try
