A shot from my archives that I decided to process due to the subjects. It gives an almost painting like feel due to the fog that was heavy this particular morning. The turkeys were unconcerned about the bull elk walking by.
Canon 40D, Canon 70-200 f2.8 IS L @170, ISO 400 @ 1/400 sec. 0 EV.
What a huge beast Chris,it looks like a 12 point wapiti?Its white points combined with the colour of it’s back against the foggy background is like a dream come true!!
He was a biggun’ We are fortunate to get foggy conditions many mornings during the rut in SMNP.
