You poor little old biddie getting your panties in a wad 😫😫. Have a nice day, sweetie! 😁
You sent me a nasty PM and blocked me from returning a message. Your PM is below so people can see what a troll you are. You are a sexist pos and btw I'm a guy, you keep saying I'm a female. This is disgusting and you should be thrown off here. You say im a female and married. Where do you get your info from?
A 12x12 cube, lol
Your pm:
Your husband must hate to come home to an old biddie like you, he probably stays away as much as possible.

WOW! Eight pages of advice. I only read the first one.
I would go with #1, but just decrease exposure a bit to emphasize the texture in the fur & antlers. I like this one because you've got the whole elk in there, & it looks like he is bugling. I can almost hear him.
Great job, BTW.
We used to have elk here in our yard when we moved in 30 years ago, but a lot of fences have been put in since then. Elk are kind of lazy, so they've moved on. I still see one occasionally & tracks on our driveway in the winter.
This is how they looked on our farm in 1994. Minolta XE-7, slide film, standard lens, no zoom or tele.

All your images are wonderful Cindy. #4 is a stunner if your intent is to show off antlers and have a more unique composition of the animal in the frame. I would suggest making the face/eye just a touch lighter though. Overall, I enjoyed #3, as I feel it shows off the size of the antlers best in proportion to the body size. #1 is good also, but IMO with it's head tilted backwards, the antlers don't show off as well in comparison with #3, but I do love that blade of grass in its mouth. You can't go wrong with choosing any one of the 4,(or all 4 as 1 responder recommended), it would be up to you as where it will hang and what's around it. Your area of the country has wonderful vistas and wildlife, I enjoy all you post. Bev
