Ken, it looks like this Roan had no problem posing for you. I especially like that you were able to capture the glint in his eye and your inclusion of the background woodlands that may be his refuge.

Hello Ken, well done here! Really like the overall tones. The Detail on big guy is excellent and nice to see all four legs visible too!
