These images are from a recent trip to Rocky Mountain National Park to capture the rutting elk Unfortunately I couldn’t get the bull above in good light with a nice background. The image above is a little different from the standard elk image, but I like the way that it captures the aggression and hormone-fueled drama of the rut. Click on the image for a larger version, and please post a comment.
Unlike the bull, this cow cooperated by posing in front of a nice background in good light. It’s easy to overlook the females when there are big-antlered bulls around, but photographs of the cows show a completely different “personality” or “feel” to the elk. I think this one works.

How beautiful, I like the redone, cropped photo a little better, but they are both wonderful. Keep up the fun work!
