Thanks everyone, Really appreciate the comments. Shirley, this is actually a yearling buck antelope. It is tough to see his horns from this angle since they are only about an inch long. Alistair, I am very fortunate where I live as the animals come right up to the house. -- Bob K.

This such a great contrast image, it really is BRIGHT in a good way. Its one of those photos that almost seems unreal. Cool!

Oh Bob, you gotta love those big eyes! I always love it when the eyes are so nice and bright and you did a good job on this one. Isn't she just so cute! Have you ever seen one of these Pronghorns running full out? I think they are the fastest land animal in the USA. I think!

Thanks Brent, No lightbox, he was standing beside the stairs to my deck with everything covered in snow. He was approximately 22 feet (6.7 meters) from me. Interesting that with the deer the shutter sound immediately draws their attention while the sound means absolutely nothing to the antelope. -- Bob K.

Great shot... wish I had the patience to get wildlife photos like this. Alistair

Ok. After seeing the spider picture I am now wondering how you got this critter in the lightbox ;-) Look at the detail and color - just amazing Bob!
