  • 1-2011.9.13#268. A bull & cow moose are staring toward several other bulls working their way. This bull featured has just run a larger bull off. It was a dramatic event as the setting sun was casting these coppery golden hues on the scene. We are on the top of the outer Range hills looking over the broad expanse of the Savage country with a backdrop of the main south Alaska Range behind the moose. And yes it's all compressed shooting the moose at 200mm. Denali Park Alaska. I have started to develop more images from this evening. Go to image Moose-2011.9.13 further on in this gallery.

But given his age (23 years now) and weight , 49 miles is a pretty good hike. He claimed his fishing hole many years ago. No other bear ever bother's him. He has just captured another Chum Salmon.
