Bull Elk

This massive elk - some can weigh up to 1,000 pounds - watched over his harem, just outside the north entrance. A very long telephoto kept me a safe distance from an animal that, during the rutting season, is never in a good mood.



2003 Alternate:


Nikon D70s ,Tokina 400mm f/5.6
1/640s, about f/8, ISO 800 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

That's not something I see every day. The crop is an excellent choice.

I was just up that way a couple weeks ago, this makes me what to go back.
Nice shot.

Excellent capture!! Love the lighting as it really highlights his rack! Great 'profile' shot!
