We had a cow and her bull calf moose spend about an hour right outside our kitchen window. This is a shot of the young bull.Carol W

Wow, that snow makes for difficult exposure metering!

Wait... Is this moose sticking its tongue out at you? I'd think in sub-freezing weather a moose would not want to walk around with its tongue hanging out. No telling what it might stick to... :)

Thanks for showing us something we surely don't have here in Florida (neither moose nor snow). :lol:

How exciting to have such interesting visitors. This one seems a little back heavy. I think cropping more of the back end off or even making the orientation a vertical makes it a stronger image.

Another good Moose shot Carol! The tongue sticking out is priceless!! and that look back makes a great shot. I agree a crop really makes a stronger image and IMHO cropping at the top of the shoulder, creating a vertical, really works well. Great job! 8) 8) :)
