Trout Lake, Yellowstone Natl. Park.  Dealing with a lot of reflected light off the wet otter but I couldn't resist the setting.  Cropped 25%.

Darn, I was just there. Saw Trout but no Otters.
I like the environmental setting of the image especially since these guys are pretty wary.
Glad you got to see one, a lot of people hike up that hill and just see the view!

Looks like some tough light but a nice "perch" you got him on Dean!

We can't always get the best of everything but I think you have handled the light really well. I love the setting, it makes the sweet otter pop
