Thanks, guys. Love elk as you can probably tell from my avatar.
Excellent capture. I love how the background completely supports the Elk and helps tell the fall story here. If anything could make it more perfect it would be a bit more space to the right.....but, that is super picky really. We just returned from Colorado last week. Did here a couple of Moose grunts but no Elk yet? Still too warm at night. The males have separated though. Most herds were small and no mature males in site.

Awesome capture
That's one gorgeous animal, very beautifully framed and captured. Love that frosted breath detail! Nice work. [Oh, and captured just a couple hours down the road from me.]

Well, if you live only a couple of hours from Jasper, I envy you. Beautiful and I assume that you have some amazing images. Thanks.
I am sad to report that in all the high country and wilderness camping and canoeing I've done -- all the caribou, bears, elk, moose, beavers, otters, countless birds, rabbits, squirrels and coyotes (and evidence of wolves) I've been close to -- I've not once had a camera with me. Yah, I know! Much of that trekking was done with a friend whom carted along a gorgeous old 4.5 hasselblad which produced landscape photos (not a great wildlife camera
) Just getting back into that lifestyle after too many years with a return to Alberta, and a recent shift in my own photography more formally toward wildlife -- almost any creature I've shot at has been with the 70-200 and very recently the 300 pf. Was in the midst of booking a grizzly photo tour in the far north this fall but then COVID :( Do have a week planned in Jasper townsite itself in September (supposed to be a frost this week so that'll knock down the bugs and tourists ) so hopefully I produce at least one amazing image I can share!
