This last weekend my dad traveled to Bozeman to spend a few days enjoying the beautiful colors and wildlife, and abundant photography opportunities that we have during this colorful season. We went into Yellowstone National Park on saturday and traveled through Mammoth Springs, over to Tower Falls and finally ended up spending the night in the middle of the Lamar Valley. When we woke up we were surrounded by a herd of Bison at least 700 strong. We took the opportunity to photograph them while we were within touching distance of the magnificent beasts. This one looked at me at just the right time.
Shot with a Canon 7D on a 70-200mm lens zoomed out at 70mm.
Nice crop!
What a handsome dude! Love this shot….
Love this! I just had my first encounter with bison – such beautiful animals!
