Amazing Adventure! A well earned hero shot like that deserves to be the best it can be. I ran it through photoshop for you Clint and lightened it up some. Here you are. Just right click on it and "save image as" to your computer for future use if you would like.

That's fantastic!  I've seen tv shows with gun-hunters complaining about how difficult it is to hunt chamois, and you did it with a stick-bow!  Cheers to you and a great hunt!

That is what my MT friends called, "Sudden country" from your great pics! I'm impressed for sure!

At this juncture of life, I'll live vicariously by your pictures and story, which is not half bad way to go.

Thanks for the effort and desire to share!
