Gros Ventre Moose

Gallery: WildlifePosted February 14, 201166 views5 comments

This was from May '10, Taken on Gros Ventre Road in between Moose & Kelly Wyoming..Towns that are right near Jackson Hole. I had the camera for about a day, and it's my first DSLR. Trying to get used to it and the thousands of settings is still pretty daunting.

All C & C welcome!

ISO 400
1/320
f5.6
W/B Cloudy

This was shot in JPEG fine...Thought the RAW setting had something to do w/ Sushi.

Nice capture, Jerry. Love the habitat you included and the moose's pose. What camera were you using?

I trust by now you know your camera in & out Jerry and that it cannot make sushi even though it is Japanese

. I like how the moose is surrounded by the dense bushes and that you managed to frame it nicely amongst all those. I wish you had included a larger version to judge this better, but from this small image I get the impression the focus is on the bushes in front of the Moose. However, this could just appear like that due to sharpening (with the branches and leaves being more susceptible to sharpening than the moose's fur.

Your dead on in respect to what was sharp in the frame Vincent...The large version isn't pretty, but if you a wallet size, this will work!

...nits already covered, but I wanted to add the framing makes this pleasing!
