Sequoia NP

Taken on a day trip to Mineral King Valley in Sequoia National Park.
I was standing on an open grassy hillside when I noticed this fella coming up the hill towards me. I waited to see where he was going...he just kept coming towards me...he stopped about 12' from where I was standing and started munching on the tall grasses. I said to myself "Ok...this is different" and started shooting some frames. At the 100mm focal length I almost had to back up.. he was so close!

Wow, how awesome, jeepers, they see me with a camera and they turn and run the other way, this IS different, must be his likes to pose. Wonderful shot, congrats on such a wonderful moment.

Wonderful shot Michael. I bet your heart was pounding being so close to such an awesome animal. I like the framing, lighting, sharpness... oh well, everything. Good work.
