Outstanding pictures.

Nice pictures Pappy, I like the storm in Montana best! CR, excellent elk photo, good job! :coolpics:
 
Pappy, that one didn't give me any trouble, but there was one in Yellowstone, below, that sure had my attention. In short, here's what happened:

Was on guided tour......tour guide, his wife and wife and I. We came across a number of vehicles pulled over to the side of the road and could see folks taking photos from inside their vehicles. We pulled over to the side, just a few yards from where an adult Bull Elk, just inside a wooded area, across a small ditch, was trying to untangle his rack from some brush in between some trees. I jumped out of the tour van, camera and video camera in-hand, and started walking the few yards to where the Bull Elk was, so I could get a better picture. I stopped, focused the camera and then seen the Elk get it's rack untangled, turn and start walking towards the parked cars and me. I turned and jumped into somebodies open van door, the Elk stopped, turned some and just stood still. I thanked the folks for letting me use their van for the escape. They said "no problem". I stepped out, brought the camera up to my eye and started taking photos. I had it in "burst" mode, so I was taking multiple shots. Then came the video camera. Within about a minute or so, this BIG racked Bull Elk started walking deeper into the woods. I got what I wanted.

In taking photo's, a person has to take a little risk, but certainly no be stupid about getting the best possible picture.
Here's one of the photos I took of that Bull Elk in Yellowstone N.P.
