Jeez you yanks like getting up frontr and personal with your wildlife dont you

Thats the 3rd crazy photo from America Ive seen this week the others were similar situations like a bloody big bear stealing some blokes salmon and the other was buffalo charging some poor dude near a geyser after he got too close photographing it hahaha .

.ANd I thought only us Aussies were that stupid to get that close!

These two bulls were obviously jossling with each other. I thought they were completely oblivious to us
being admittedly too too close at 25 yards. They suddenly stopped fighting looked at us and began running straight
for us....no pics of that, I was running as fast as I could to the van.
p.s. I never knew a moose could run as fast as a horse.

Yikes...that is why there are laws about getting too close to nature. that said, our little group of photographers I was with in Yellowstone 2 weeks ago got charged by a herd of bison. They were a fair distance but boy they can move fast.

Maureen I know about bison. Outside of Banff one (female with child) tried to run me down. An close knit aspen grove saved my life. I'd never seen one before and said to myself 'this is just a hairy cow'. I'll learn someday, but in case I don't it's a much better way to go than many

Oh man, this is so funny.

Yes you are right,
Well I'm not an expert Wildlife photographer, as I don't have patience to stay hours hidden a take spectacular pictures. I generally go outdoor to hike and shoot what Nature offers me.
So I share you another pictures taken in Colombia, I like the emotion of the bird in this one

Outstanding.

Yes, that's superb!

One of my all-time favorite subjects. Especially when they go air born.

A WONDERFUL shot Maureen!! Did you have your camera on a tripod for this event?

No tripod, Charles. They aren’t allowed on the whale watching boats. Just handheld with one leg wrapped around the rail & both elbows planted on top of it

Nicely captured and put together.

I made a collage with some dolphins, but yours looks better.
The image is 4 dolphins jumping together- I didn't know they did that outside of SeaWorld or other venues.

Photo from Capn Jack's gallery.
