I drove by the San Luis NWR on the way to work Thursday with the intention of shooting landscape stuff...no Elk. Well I saw these guys real close to the fence so I couldn't pass up the opportunity!


Canon 300D, 100-300 f/4.5-5.6 @ 300mm
Handheld
ISO 100, 1/1000 sec, f/5.6

WoW~
I almost hit one of those with my car the other day.....thankfully they watched me stomp on the brakes, before suantering across the road.

Beautiful aren't they? I'd much rather admire them than hit them!

They're really awesome animals.

Thanks everybody!

I'm not doing really great...especially today. I've got a doctor appointment tomorrow and some serious questions need to be answered.

Heather, by using a zoom lens (300mm) and a large apperture (small "f" number), the foreground remains in focus, while the background becomes out of focus.
