I used a Canon EOS Rebel XT, Focal Length was 80mm, ISO 400, F-stop F/4.5, This was taken up the Trinity Mountains, it was almost dark. There had been fires up there a year before. its why the trees look this way, I found it interesting and started to take the trees against that sky.
A surrealistic piece I did ages ago. It’s possibly the illustration I’m most proud of. I had put a lot of time and effort developing this style for myself. It borrows aspects of anime movie style illustration from movies such as – Ghost in the shell and Patlabor, aswell as every Hayao Miyazaki film. It was hand drawn. I started with the Geisha then added the other elements separately similarly to how an animator might build up a scene. Detail:
I started out wanting to do a kinda poetic image with the stag caught up in police tape. But here is where it ended up…I really hate redtape and bureaucracy. Anyway, hope you enjoy! / NFA / Alt. version BMail me: /
An Elk for the people… we all love leaves don’t we?
Location: Elk Grove California / Technique: HDR (High Dynamic Range) and Time Lapse This was absolutely the hardest sequence of shots I have ever done,,,, Ever! Loved the way the trees lined up along this dirt road except that they were originally only on the right side. Did my HDR sequence at about 6:30pm just for the trees. Then I shot a 1260 second exposure with an ND Cokin Gradual filter later at about 10pm in complete darkness with only the moon for light.

Seeing a big Bull Elk throw back his massive head and let out his piercing bugling sound is truly one of the miracles of the Rocky Mountain Autumn Season…I still get chills when I am blessed with this amazing experience.

These two elk were basking in the sun, waiting for me to take their picture! /
According to some Native traditions, the Elk symbolizes endurance or stamina. Bull Elk is a powerfully masculine spirit. The New Moon and Venus in this position are symbolic of the High Priestess in the Tarot deck. The most potent of feminine portents. They seem to me a perfect combination of male-female balance and harmony. / In my interpretation, the placement of Venus between (above, yet behind) the antlers of Standing Elk represents fertility. The Moon, in virtually all traditions is a representation of romantic love …. New Moon, a glowing bowl to hold the abundance of Creation. The marriage of Earth and Heaven.

SO MUCH BETTER TO VIEW LARGE Big Daddy Elk…....photographed just east of Banff, Alberta, Canada…....... / handsome devil, isn’t he…....... / June 14, 2009 THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR VIEWS FRIENDS!!! xo
Yesterday we had our lunch by the lake, then walked along the shore talking to the ducks and just breathing in the beautiful fall day….as we walked back toward the car, I just happened to turn around and there, in the water, was a little herd of elk…...they were crossing the lake, bulls rounding up their ladies, young ones trailing along…..we watched them in the water and on the land for over an hour, fascinated by their beauty and entertained by their interaction…...I hope you enjoy these shots…. Lake Estes, Estes Park, Colorado.
Elk down from the mountains to feed in the meadow. Storm clouds clearing, and the sun rays from the mountains just thought it was all so beautiful. Just an amazing sight had to stop and get this shot. I took this shot in the Northern California area, better known as the Sierra Nevada’s. Who would have thought you could see such great wildlife in the wilds of California. This photo was taken on Hwy 395 near Lone Pine, not far from Bishop. I just think this area is so beautiful and looks different in every season. Today was great with the clouds and the lighting. I used my Canon EOS, Rebel XT, and the lens was the 18-55 mm. This shot is as is.
Woke up early to catch the sunrise and took a short drive down to Lamar Valley in Yellowstone National Park. The morning fog was hovering close to the ground. A male Elk off in the distance peering out of the fog. Definitely worth waking up early for. / / / /
The horned God is the eternal hunter, and also the animal which is hunted. He is the Beast who is sacrificed so that human life may go on , as will as the sacrificer, the one who sheds blood. He is also seen as the sun, eternally hunting the moon across the sky. the waxing and waning of the sun throughout the seasons manifest the cycle of birth and death, creation and dissolution, separation and return. I built the background in photo shop, the tornado was drawn with brushes/blended and blurred / The clouds were pieced together from photos and masked and blended/blurred / Trees were my photos/separated and moved about / Antlers were a separate photo from the head
Morning in Smoky Mountain National Park. This Bull had just chased a young bull away from his harem. This image is the cover and the December photo in my 2009 wildlife calendar.
Just a few miles inside Yellowstone is an area that attracts the mature bulls during the winter. On a lucky Friday the 13th recently I encounter a group of five large bulls. They provided this rare group picture opportunity though not without challenge as they were hanging about half mile off the road necessitating a hike with full gear through crusty snow which at times rose to mid thigh. Canon EOS-1D, Mark II, Canon 500 f4L IS 1.4 Extender – 1/800@ f/16, ISO 200. Bogen 3411 w Wimberley style head. Processed in Adobe Lightroom 2.2.
Silver Lake in Cottonwood Canyon. Added the elk and photoshop.
A young bull elk keeps gaurd over two cows during the autumn rut. The Gibbon river Valley flows though the west central portion of Yellowstone Natonal Park. A week earlier this meadow was the site of great battles between mature waring bulls, but now, as the rut wains this adolescent bull persists with cows allready visited by his elders.
Late September in the heat of the rut. Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming.
It is a quiet autumn day. This creek is low on water and the current is not real swift. Further down it empties into the Rogue River and there the current is swift and very strong. A canoe has broken away from it’s mooring and is starting to drift down stream. The couple that were canoeing are strolling in the park and don’t realize that anything is amiss. Perhaps this little canoe will end up in another world of swift currents, rocks and buried trees. Yes, it is a brave soul that will save this little canoe now! / A composite of 2 images, autumn background and canoe. Taken at Elk Creek Park, Oregon
