This bull was wintering along the Madison River last year.  Since the Madison doesn't freeze wildlife can find food along the edges and in the river.

Excellent look back pose with lovely lighting. I like how the antlers are set off by the snow behind. Beautiful shot.

Great shot of a magnificent animal - They live in Davis Mountains and I am working on figuring out a way to photograph them -
