I like it Dan. Good behavior shot. The snow really adds to it also IMO.

Awesome depiction of the behaviour

Great job getting into position to get this killer perspective.

Quite a hilarious image Dan with the Elk in this pose and those huge eyes. Techs look spot on (as always).

I like this Dan! Soft light worked a treat and the tight comp shows the behaviour well. Love the snow on the tree...
