I'm not too convinced of this shot, do you think the subject is too small?

Small in the frame works so successfully her. The dramatic silhouette helps.

Great depth and perspective with the Ibex silhouette against that stunning mountain backdrop! The size of the Ibex is as it should be. Love it!

I think this is gorgeous- not too small at all. However, if you cropped the lighted side of the right-hand mountain, I Ibex would be a little more prominent. Either way, great photo!
HDR does improve the visibility.
