Hello. We spent a very short couple days at Yellowstone Nat'l Park this past weekend. The weather was largely terrible, mostly rain and snow, but the sun did shine just a bit and I came away with a few images. They're not the best, but all I could muster during the very little periods of usable light. I took many more images, but only had time to process a few this evening. A few coyote pups, elk, wolf and a black bear. Thanks for looking [img] http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p273/rdebernardi/0J1T0483.jpg[/img]

Thanks.
The camera is a Canon 1D Mark III. Lens is a 500mm F/4.0L-IS. You're not kidding around are you? Here is a few I took up there on our annual mother's day picnic trip. Hope it's not a hijack. The camera is our Canon S2is.

Rob, were you on a tripod for any or all of those or are you able to shoot at 500mm freehand?
Any more to share?

Thanks! Yea, the backlit elk image was kind of a fluke honestly. I was just going to pass right by, since the lighting was so unfavorable from the viewing location. The person I was with said "I think he looks kind of cool, backlit like that. Might make for an interesting picture."
So I can't really take credit. Only thing I did was intentionally underexpose the elk (-1.5 stops I believe) so the back-lighting was more pronounced in the image.
Thanks for the comments. I have a 16x24" print on the way now, we'll see how it turns out.

The picture of the laying elk has the grass in the fore and back ground out of focus, the animal and grass in focus along with a bush that appears to be in the fore ground. What am I seeing??
