Shows the animal and it's habitat beautifully, nice capture.

getting the animal in the pool of light was very much luck. got a few frames before he scurried off in to the darker forest.
goes to show you don't need a super expensive or super tele to get the wildlife shots...

Fired many shots. Didn't kill anything.

Nice shot, the highlights on the horns are fab It's amazing you got so close! No doubt it was all down to your ninja-like stalking skills

I like this very much. sharp image and the light on the Elk is great.
The deer here in the UK are in 'full antler' mode, just about, so I guess it must be their rut in a month or two; normally a good photo op (if you can avoid getting all the other photographers in the frame...)

Lovely shot, but I think the copyright stamp is a bit gaudy

Well done Don, superb light. Looks like he's still in velvet.

My first comment was a little tongue in cheek, but I keep coming back to look at this.
It really is a lovely image.

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.
