I'll change up the elk photos and switch gender here.
This calf had tried to enter the river in a couple of other places and found them a little too deep for its liking. It finally entered here with the cow and seemed to be getting a little reassurance that everything was OK.

Comments welcome

Bruce, I like this alot! Great exposure, good detail, nice and sharp. You have both faces in focus. I would like to have seen it larger. Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful image ! The setting is so vibrant and utterly inviting. Feel like am in the water next to them. Not easy when you have multiple subjects, but you pulled it off expertly

This is truly a lovely image Bruce. The poses, the framing, the DOF, the soft light and the way you have processed this alltogether make for a really pleasing photo.
