Zoo Elk

Queens Zoo, NY

Nowadays, zoos try to keep the animals in
as natural environment as possible. Here,
the elk appears to be free and it is the
tree that has been caged.

Oops, I thought I checked size. Ugh. As for his pose, I just loved that he did this. It's hard to really tell, but there is a mist of water coming out of the tree, directly above his head. He was apparently cooling himself in it. ~ Lonnit

You are most welcome. Stags seem to make great subjects and he's captured in a lovely pose here. It's a little over the 150KB limit so would you mind compressing a touch more please. Regards, Najinsky

Thank you. This is not within my usual realm of shooting styles. I rarely do nature photography so I am glad it has been received well. :) ~ Lonnit

It looks like an old magazine illustration. Nice PP here.
