Elk, Elk, and More Elk

Since I was recently in Estes Park, Colorado for an art show, a few days before and after the show were spent in Rocky Mountain National Park photographing the rutting elk. Sometimes the elk cooperated and were close, and other times the bulls and their harems were too far away in the middle of Moraine Park. The Nikon 200-500mm f/5.6 adapted to the Fuji GFX 100s was used. The images suffered from often having to use a high ISO of 6400, but the Denoise in ACR did a reasonable job on mitigation.

More images may be seen on the website.

You have some great photos. It sure is fun in RMNP this time of year!
