    I shiver just looking at it, especially from living in South Carolina, where it was 104 two days ago. Great image

    Thanks. Yes, it was COLD! Wearing many layers kept me toasty. I looked at your images – very impressive!

    i love the whiteness, the emptiness and the loneliness of this image. it’s balanced by the fact that there’s a duo of bison. lovely….

    Thank you for the comments (everyone). This was my first Yellowstone winter trip and I can’t wait to get back. Definitely different from summer. And winter is the norm there. Just spectacular.

    Do you live in Yellowstone? During the Summer and Winter I live in Big Sky.
    Great shot, was it around Haden Valley

    Congrats on the MARCH FEATURE for “Antlers, Racks, and Other Horned Animals*

  • Gary Lengyel replied

    Thank you Jake. And from you I found out about the feature. Cool!!! No, I live in northern Colorado. I went to Yellowstone with the Joseph Van Os tour last winter. Fabulous trip and I would very much like to go with them again. The pro photographer leading the trip, Mike Francis, was great. This image was taken at Old Faithful.

    Amazing! The feeling of cold comes across really well and those two bison look like they are fighting the biting wind. You must have been frozen!.

  • Gary Lengyel replied

    Thank you. Yeah, I was cold, but very bundled up. And it was worth it!

    You were also in full force of the elements – at least they had nice warm jackets. Toastyness to you for this shot. LOL B-)))

    Thank you Barbara. If i remember right, I was the one out there. It was later in the day and everyone else from the photo tour when back to the lodge. Lucky for me to be able to capture this. And I had a nice, warm jacket myself :)

    great shot … I’d have been glad it wasn’t the rutting season ..

  • Gary Lengyel replied 28 days ago

    Thank you Alan. The cold and snow slows them down as they want to conserve energy. They just want to eat and try to stay warm.
