ALMOST PRIME [Contest Finalists December 2011]
Uploaded: December 01, 2011 02:23:45
D90 Tamron 18-270@170mm ISO800 F6 SS/1/1600 Taken in the Lamar Valley NE YSNP
Seeing as it's the LAST T~K~W Day of 2011, I just thought a post of something a bit more Upbeat and Handsome was appropriate. This Young Bull while not quite as BIG or Bulky as the rest just struck me as the POSTER BOY TYPE. Standing there in the desiccated grass he gave the appearance at least of being Master of All he Surveyed. Actually he's probably 300 to 400 pounds shy of being ready to mix it up w/the BIG BOYS.
Exif: F Number: 6, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/1600 seconds, Flash: did not fire., ISO: 800, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 170.00 mm, Model: NIKON D90
