Pretty much every morning I go out for a drive, looking for wildlife. The following photos were taking during a few of those drives. My "X Shot" came about when I was photographing a young baby deer in the sun. It suddenly moved into the shade, I kept shoot with my daylight exposure, no time to change it. The ears and hind legs were hit with some light, properly exposed. Love those ears!

Colorado - Elk Rut Starts in Evergreen


 I drove to downtown Evergreen for my daily early morning bull run (Red Bull). This gives me the chance of coming across some wildlife and this morning had results. A large bull was showing interest in a cow but she wanted nothing to do with him. The following photos shows what went down. With the rut comes danger, caution is always best.

 For the last couple of weeks, I have been going out on small photo shoots. It has been cold and a little snowy. My locations were Evergreen, Bear Creek Park, Chatfield Reservoir and Roxborough Park. This time of year is nice, not many people around and it's really peaceful.  In all the photos, I took my light reading off the highlights.
