Great capture Carol, wonderful light, comp and details. Happy Easter to you and yours. #1112065Carolyn J. Connolly April 11, 2009
Carol, this is a really superb capture, with excellent tones, lighting, details, textures and composition!! Great title for it, too!! :o) By the look of that frosty ground, though, the elk might just need their winter coats for a little longer!! ;o) I wish you and yours a very Happy Easter!! :o) #7393513Emily Cook April 11, 2009
Carol, this is a great wildlife capture! I can almost feel the texture of their changing coats in that shivery-cold water. Happy Easter! #7394144Eugenio Diaz April 11, 2009
