I shot this during a snow storm in Yellowstone NP.

Canon EOS-3 / 70-200 2.8l / Provia RDPII ISO 100. Exposure and tech's were unrecorded.

Thanks in advance for any and all comments.

Great light and shooting to you all!

Great action! Parts of their bodies look almost purple, and I can't figure out if it's my monitor, or something with their dark fur in snow.

Great action and I really love the weather feature here, it really adds a great deal to the feel of the foto. Agree with the above, regarding some work needed in color corrections and worth the time to sort out with a picture this good! Thanks for posting in Wildlife, NatureScapes.net.

Great action you've caught here and, as Dennis says, well worth correcting the colour balance. Well done.

Great Image. The snow really adds to the drama of the fight scene.

Really cool - perhaps a bit on the contrasty side.

Nice shot! The snow really adds to the image. All that's need is a little color work as has been noted already.

Great action shot and the snow adds a lot. Provia always scans with a magenta cast that you can remove with curves.

Excellent. I think that it has more impact if cropped a litttle from the top

Very nice; love the action, the falling snow and the negative space at the top works very well IMO. Looks almost like a painting. Color can be readily adjusted.
