Young Elk at Sunrise

Critique Style Requested: Standard

Description

This was taken on a great morning in Rocky Mountain National Park. The sun was getting higher and harsher, and the original of this has very dark shadows. I lightened those up but not too much and blurred the background. I didn’t edit this one very much otherwise, it was very sharp to begin with.

Technical Details

1/500s, ISO 320, f/7.1, 400mm

Cool portrait with some nice details !
You may experiment with a vertical crop, if you have some more canvas.
