A fine head on that beast, Dave, nice composition too. Typical conformation of emparked and managed herds.

And you can't tell which way he's facing. Is he looking into the distance or looking over his shoulder back towards the camera. I was there and I don't know!

Thanks for the comments gents. In my opinion, this is the best photo I've taken. So far!
