I'm wondering if the trees on the left work for anybody else - I kinda like 'em, especially the OOF one. BTW, I posted another shot of this guy over on A.J.'s "Northwest Photographers" site that has a bunch of cropping options. Please gander and opine on that one, too.

I think they are a little destracting. Maybe a vertical crop focused on the bison. Nice capture though. Looks like he was enjoying a nice lunch.

Great shot of that Bull Erik. I find the trees a little distracting, I think would crop them out.

It's a cool shot, that Buffalo doesn't look happy, but cropping off the blur on the left leaves Mr. Buff too close to the left edge, IMHO. I can't imagine blowing this one up and framing it with that big blurred area so I guess you're going to have to just chalk this one up to "nice but not quite".
