Good Mornin' Bob!

If I have any disappointments about this shot, Bob, it's that the Ram 
is fairly young and has not yet developed a "full curl" in his 
horns.  He's handsome, but not gorgeous.  [Sigh.]  Now, my Wapiti 
(Elk), shown the other day, was an absolutely gorgeous creature, but 
the light, and his willingness to strike a "perfect pose", were not 
in the equation that day.
(Some days you get the bear ... some days the bear gets you....)

But, as Doug pointed out, the light was good, and the Ram decided to 
stop moving and pose, for just a few seconds ... but it was long enough!
In this shot, focus was aided by the new Focus Confirmation (Leica R 
to Canon) adapter, which works (sporadically) with the Telyt 400 in 
*really* bright light ... but when it works , it's perfect!

My, you **are** digging through the mouldy oldies, aren't you....  ;-)

Thanks,  both for your kind words and for taking the time to look!

Cheers!
