Night Silhouette

On a VERY early Saturday morning in Rocky Mountain National Park (July 2004)

Hmm, the first thing that hits me is that the horizon is off. And IMO theres way too much black background. The sky is lovely though, I would love to see this in B&W

Sorry about the size of the image! I'm still learning how to use Photo freaking Bucket..... :x

Karalee, thanks for your input. But how could the horizon be off??? This is on an alpine ridge at almost 12,000 feet. This was not a level slope. There is no possible way to distinguish whether the horizon is off.

I meant there was a slight slope to the shot, thats what I mean by off.

My apologies for being presumptious about what you meant.

The horizon doesn't bother me at all. I like the fact you're looking up to the slope, and it's obvious the animals are grazing undisturbed. This is a very quiet, serene-looking image. Just beautiful.

I LOVE IT!!! That's all I have to say.

Great photo! I like that the bottom is slighly going downwords, and I love the colors here. Don't change it to b&w, because I thing that a litle bit of colors here, gives the approperiate atmosphere

You really captured the serenity of the moment. Elk are such a lovely animal. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one that photographs them.
