I was looking for moose on the west side of RMNP & found this ram on Milner Pass. Since this was in a dark hollow at sunset, I was pleased to get anything worth keeping.

500mm, f/4, 1/320, ISO 800

Thanks for the comments, everyone.

Shooting wildlife in the dark quickly builds that appreciation for clean, high iso sensors.
Nah...better not go there....

Super portrait, Bill! It looks like he's posing for you - did you have peanut butter on your fingers or something?
