Spot the Elk

Well, it's in there somewhere.

When I arrived at this location in Yellowstone I suddenly spotted the elk and quickly set up my gear. I took a series of shots and bracketed a lot. I have heard from wildlife photographers that it is always good to show the animal's habitat in the shot - well, there you have it...

Hey Marsel, hadn't you heard that centred compositions don't work!

Anyone taking bets on Editors Pick?!

Beautiful shot. I have been there many times and it is hard to get the steam to really look good. You've done good.
