I think yes! Moose are my favorite thing to shoot and go out all the time tracking, watching, waiting and just getting to know them. My friends jokingly call me the moose whisperer. Anyhow, I seem to get a moose almost every time I go out, but not always. Until the last few weeks. I have been taking my friend out to shoot moose and have gotten at least one different moose every night we've gone out for almost two weeks. Talk about awesome! These are a few of my favs from the last few weeks.

These last few are not very good IQ since it was almost dark and had to bump up the ISO and the other was across a lake with my 2X. Last one isn't very exciting, but even after seeing moose all the time, this was the first time I got to photograph moose swimming.

Thanks for the comments guys. So I guess rather than start another thread I'll just ask here. I have 2 more people typically like and want to print 1 of these for a frame to hang over my headboard. Out of these 2 new and the fist pic in this thread what one should I print?

1 or 3 as well. I love 1 cause it's awesome, and 3 cause of the environmental portrait feel I get from it.

Great set! I am envious that you can follow a moose all day! I say print the environmental or the third photo! Although the first photo's composition is great too! Spilt the difference and print them both!
