Elk antler art?

North Yellowstone Park, early July, late afternoon. I followed this bull elk (at considerable distance) as it browsed its way through tall grasses. Then it eased down into the grass, as if to rest and digest. I thought the antlers alone made a more interesting image, how about you?

The antlers are pretty sharp but look a bit soft because they are covered with soft "velvet", which supplies blood for continued growth.

Canon 7D, 300mm, f/5.6, 1/320th, handheld, cropped about 50% to emphasize the antlers. See larger image, too.

Comments welcome. Dave Thomas, Leesburg, Virignia
