Another image from our recent trip to the NW. I have several up on my site, www.OzarksPhotos.com and still many to put up.

Hey Larry, Great capture. The movement of the moose in the water coupled with the reflection in the calm water makes a good animated shot. Also, the background of the grasses highlight the moose. The oof leaves in the right side don't add anything to the shot, but I know they can't be avoided sometimes when you have an opportunity like this. NICE....

The reflection, still water, and the stirred water make a great shot. I agree on the leaves--wish they weren't there.

Good action photo of the cow--Shira specises???

This is fantastic, Larry. Beautiful colors, and what a killer reflection! I'd be tempted to try cropping the oof leaves, which would also place the moose in a stronger position in the frame.

Thanks everyone.

Man, wonderful encounter Larry. You really get a sense of the power of moose in this shot. Great job getting your subject & the reflection.

Maybe a crop from the right to eliminate the oof leaves and prominent trunk reflection.
