2016 Wildlife Photo Contest

Bull Elk, Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado, USA
Sparring Match

Species: Bull Elk | Location: Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado, USA

For nearly 30 years I have had the pleasure of photographing wildlife throughout the country. I am hopeful that my images will help raise awareness of the plight of creatures that roam this planet. The destruction of habitat along with climate change place all life at risk. Those most vulnerable are the critters at the mercy of human development and insensitivity.
