It's been a while...

I was expecting to arrive in Yellowstone just a bit late for the bulk of the elk rut activity, but exceptionally warm weather seemed to delay much of the festivities. This was easily the best elk rut (in terms of photographic opportunities) that I have seen in the past 25 years.
