I’m off to Florida tomorrow for a quick visit with my mother (and perhaps some new wildlife encounters) so this will be the last post until next week. A simple portrait of a bull moose on a misty morning in Chugach State Park in Alaska. The rut was in full swing when I came across a few large males searching for a mate — a potentially dangerous situation so I had to be constantly aware of my surroundings. Nikon D500 with Nikkor 70-200mm lens (at 210mm) ISO 800, f/4 at 1/800th of a second.
Back in my day Moose were gentleman. They didn’t run about the woods licking their lips and trying to rut with you. They took you out for a nice dinner of pine needles and cold water, then you went for a walk, talked about your favorite Tonight Show episodes and your love of decaf coffee – you know, really got to know each other – and then and only then did you go back to his place and fuck.

WOW!
