Christmas Eve leaving Grand Canyon Nat'l Park. This magnificent creature was foraging just 50ft. from the road. Not concerned in the least with the hoards of Japanese tourists who jump out of their cars, causing a traffic jam, snapping pictures of him.

God has created fantastic beauty for us to photograph and fantastic photographers to bring out that beauty in unique ways.

Looks like he's built for the cold and you've captured him very well. Is this a tamed elk? He doesn't seem overly concerned about the nearness of you !!!

We don’t make art to show someone what something looks like. All this requires is eyes (or a lens). Art is supposed to have meaning, emotion, power, or magic. Alan & Mario "FourThirds"
