Hello NatureScapers..

This is the last "blue sky" motif entry.. This image was made in Jasper about two weeks ago, right at the end of a STL workshop... This has been a terrific week here at the Wildlife forum and thanks to all who participated in the personal motif series.. Have a terrific weekend everyone...

Another great one! That bit of ice on his forehead is nice.

One of your very best Dennis. I love this one. I also enjoyed checking out all the shots from the the Jasper trip on your website. Looks great.

Another wonderful shot! The broken tip on his right side looks a bit odd, but that's life in the wild.

Beautiful image. The amount of focus on the bg mountain is perfect, IMHO.

Another outstanding image

I like how you where able to keep the horns within the outline of the mountains and get some of the sky included. Great shot.

Like all your motif shots this week Dennis, this is tremendous. Great foreground sharpness and a well-selected shooting position to frame his head within the background ridge. Definitely a prime specimen, although the tips of his horns are showing some wear and tear.

Hi Dennis,

I finally got around to registering with this site this aftrnoon. Like the previous commentary, I really like this picture. I believe I have a couple of shots of you making this series of images. Nice work and nice meeting you. I hope we have an opportunity to shoot pictures together again some time.

Dave
