What a great sot Debra, with the rain and foreground complimenting the entire scene. I also like the detail of the eye. Lucky you can visit this awesome park. Well done

Thanks very much Clifford, yes Riding Mountain is a great park to visit, I try to get there at least once a year.

I'm sure the bison was more comfortable in the rain than you were, Debra. Great focus and composition under not ideal conditions. Nice!!

We are not allowed to leave our vehicles in this area so my arms just got wet. I had my camera/lens covered over but I am glad I decided to take the shot. Thank you Jane for your comments, always appreciated.

Very cute little bison. Like the composition behind some red plants. Catchlit in the eye and the mood of the little guy made it a very nice picture.

Debra Plett

Yes, I too like the overall mood of the image. Thanks Yves for your feedback always appreciated.

Heather Mellon

I love the mood of this image with the autumn colours in the foreground and the rain coming down on his curly coat. Very nice capture, Debra.

Thank you Heather. The little bison had been playing and chasing each other which was really cute. However, I was unable to get a shot of playtime. I think the bison were enjoying the rain.
