ANDREAS EXNER IMAGES

I’m still not done with sorting through my 2012 archive. The Rocky Mountain Elks were one of the reasons that we really wanted to visit Rocky Mountain National Park last year. We had plenty of encounters of these wonderful animals and have enjoyed watching them very much. The best time to see them is quite often during the evenings, which at the other hand can be quite a challenge with exposure. Using a tripod is highly recommended for managing the low light situations.
