Ibex, revised

Added a few highlights & adjusted the cast shadows on the ibex's back, as suggested by Michael Severin. Not sure if the highlights show up much in the photo, but in "real life", they do draw the eye. Hope it's improved!

Comment by Jessica Futerman on July 10, 2013 at 6:19: Thank you Mario for your nice comments - the shadows on the ibex were very dramatic before, but they were taking too much attention & Michael suggested changing the shape, which I did here. If you get stuck for a word sometimes, no hay problema, yo entiendo espanol!
