Description

Hello All ! Taken at William S Hart ranch in Newhall CA. They are free range bison . Originally this guys ancestors were given as a gift to Will Hart ( a silent film movie actor-played mostly cowbows ) by Walt disney in the 60's . You have to hike up a mountain to get to these guys . They are on a hillside and not always in view ... just got lucky this day! Shot with my canon (8mp sl-100sx 10zoom pocket cam )on full zoom . he was maybe 300-400 feet away) so did some of my postwork to help try and draw him out !... Fact; -Did you know the North American Bison is North America's largest land animal? He really was a playful !! It was so funny cause he would grab his tail yank on it, and go round and round in a circle like a puppy ... hehe I had never seen anything quite like it before. Thanks for your time and comments !! Love to all , ((( BIG HUGS ))) ~ Kimmers !! ♥ :O)

The sense of lighting in this is great, and so is the sense of detail. I love the sense of personality that you captured in this image and it takes quite an eye to be able to do that! Fantastic work, rich in great visual detail.

That is funny. I wonder if he got dizzy from this exercise. Splendid clarity, colors, lighting effects and textures in this momentous capture of the young bison/buffalo, Miss Kimmie! I used to see these guys on nickels awhile back.

And the look in his eye makes me think he is stunned that someone found him out. :-) This is really a fabulous shot. Stellar in fact. What a fantastic look at this youngster.
