Colorado - Baby Elk in Evergreen.

Camera - Canon EOS 5D Mark II
ISO - 2000
Shutter - 1/500 sec.
F/stop - 3.5
Lens - 70/200 zoom

For about a month now I have been taking an early morning drive, looking for baby elk. Yesterday I found what I was looking for. A group of them were with their moms just off highway 73. I was able to park safely and moved to the passenger seat. With this many little ones, you don't take any chances off an attack. The female can be very aggressive at this time.
