Perhaps not a great photo but such an endearing couple I thought it was worth sharing. Shot at Custer in October.
Canon Eos 1V, Cannon 70-200/2.8, hand held; P100F, no flash. Full frame. Settings not recorded. Comments, revisions quite welcome.

It looks like a cheek to check romanace- certainly a freindly couple.

The light didn't do you any favors, but a shot like this would have been too tough to pass up. Despite the light, good details.

Is this tilted or are they leaning?

COOL, siamese donkeys :D

Really nice shot you got here, despite the less than favourable light. Well seen.

How cute! A very nice shot although I think a slight clockwise rotation would improve the photo.

Looks like Burro Love to me!!!!, Very nice!!! Congrats!! 8)
While ridding in my motorcycle thru the Tar Hills, there was a band of now almost wild burros from the last century that roam wild, they love people and people give them stuff such as candy and whatever they can find, someone left a minivan open and two burros got almost all the way inside looking for treats, It was a riot since they would not leave until the Cheetos bag was empty!!! I took me two days to stop laughing!!! 8)

Very sweet interaction! I do think it's just a little tilted as presented. but that barely distracts from this wonderful image.
