This image, taken last week, is one of my favorites of my recent trip.  I stopped to watch the bull with a small harem and a couple of calves.  Individually they would stop grazing and look at me occasionally but pretty much ignored my presence.

I watched as these three stayed near each other and I began thinking, “Please look!  Please look!” Lo and behold, all three lifted their heads and looked in my direction for just a brief instance.  Bingo! A very nice Elk family portrait.

It is times like these when as a photographer you can’t help but be excited about one of your own images.

Taken in Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado.
