Red Dog on about a day and a half old

Just a simple photo that is so very complicated. A mother stares into the future of the trials and tribulations that are in store. These are both natural and man made. The mother knows this yet she stands ever so watchful, ready to sacrifice all 1800 lbs of herself to protect his life. He's excited yet shy, ready to live yet not so bold that he cannot leave her touch of reassurance and protection.
The clearest way into the Universe is through a forest wilderness.

Nice moment captured with this cow and calf. The light was a little on the harsh side

Thanks Matthew. It was a pretty cool moment.


I feel the slight harshness adds to the dramatic effect of this moment. Jus' me I suppose.
