Hi Friend,

Its been a while since I sent out any pictures and I may have overdone it this time. A good friend let me help him on an elk research project in Rocky Mountain National Park this Winter. Although, I'm not a wildlife photographer, this project got me in some nice places and I got some scenery and wildlife shots. And of course, I've got some artsy-fartsy stuff too.

It would be good to hear from you.

Wildlife:

Here is a deer that lives near my house - really near and a mountain
sheep that doesn't.

Some birds - mountain blue bird (turning blue) and a red tailed hawk
series.

One of the reasons I don't do wildlife photography is that you
have to be so patient. I held a somewhat heavy camera in the shooting
position for forty minutes, with finger on the shutter, waiting for
that half second opportunity to catch a few shots when the hawk took flight.

Scenery:

Fragile ice, a ridge of ice in a ditch, and an icy bike path.

Moon rise over Laporte. This was the evening after the lunar eclipse.
The deep orange comes from the moon's light traveling through lots of
atmosphere.
