Photographed some more elk this morning at Rocky. Was pretty windy but the light was very nice. Thanks for looking.

Also captured this calf. Was pretty curious to see what all the photographers were doing.

Great clarity on these! I get up into the park someday, I swear!

Really love that first one, Dan - great light and love the look in his eyes.

Sweet capture! That is one magnificent bull, and he's putting on quite the show. Have there been a lot of people there this year? Are the rangers/volunteers being control freaks as in past years?

Thanks for the comments. Don, there have been alot of people, but the rangers have been pretty good.
Usually, I head down the Cub Lake Trail. Not alot of people and usually no rangers.

Very nice, Dan! I can almost hear the bugling in that first one.
