At Peace in the Pond #3

The last in my moose series. First there was Mom, then Baby joined her, then Mom walked into the brush, leaving only Baby in the pond. I caught it just before it also made it's exit in this shot.

Aw man, that is sweet! I think this is just absolutely great. The stance, the scene, the comp, that perfect water.....I love it.
This has been a super little series, thanks for doing it. It brings a story to the pictures. Well done.

I don't think I could call a moose sweet, but this picture is really well made, well composed and well detailed.

Love the implied action with the raised foot and splashes. Nicely composed.

Moose calves are gawky; you[ve caught that well here.

Gary: I like the pose (raised foot) and the water dripping off the calf. It's a fine environmental shot and merits a place on yur wall. Richard
