Sweet shot and a good BG. The Easterns are so hard to shoot, quoting Ken Newcombe last weekend; he said: they let you get too within a 100 feet ± 1" and then they're gone! :)

The weather was horrible when I was in MT last week too. This is an excellent shot though.

Jim,
Lovely photo, tack sharp, interesting to view. Possibly a touch off the right but that is a truly nitty nit. Congrats on a fine image.
