Very nice shot. As the host of soon to be gone National Park and wildlife group I’m picking out some of the best and asking people to submit photos to the Smithsonian Mag. photocontest I was a finalist for the 2008 contest and was displayed at the Smithsonian Museum. Redbubble members have been in the finals the last two years.
