Wet Moose

Gallery: WildlifePosted November 20, 2011261 views3 comments

Just a young bull moose emerging from the water after wading in the pond on a chilly autumn morning. The oof grass bugs me a bit (as always), not much I can do about that now. I'm usually not a big fan of a centered subject in a shot, but for some reason it seems (to my eye) to work here. Thoughts?

As always, comments & suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Nice straight on shot of the young moose. In this case centering works very well IMHO. Thanks for sharing.

The grass doesn't bother me and I like your choice of centered subject. Excellent work.

Unique perspective, great colors and sharp where it matters. Nice moose photo Guy. Centered subject is appropriate here. Well done.
