Bulls Fighting

gary tompkins January 6, 2015

This picture has become a popular one and I have been asked why it isn't for sale, simple, even though all the elements have come together for this image, a good story, lighting, context, etc. there is one major problem—this image is heavily cropped. These elk were so far away from me that even at a full 300mm zoom (450mm equivalent) I had to crop out most of the picture to get what you see here and as such I can't "embiggen" it. I will work on it some more and see what else can be done but for now it remains a smaller image that I quite enjoy.

 

From the Simpsons—

"A noble spirit enbiggens  the smallest man" 
- Jebediah Springfield 

Edna Krabappel: "Embiggens"? I never heard that word before I came to Springfield. 
Miss Hoover: I don't know why. It's a perfectly cromulent word.
