In a few weeks, as the weather here in Sweden has been very dull. Either it rains or it's very gray. And this morning was no exception, BUT, I turned it to my advantage. I know that some animals show themselves more when the weather is not at its peak. Hope they do it this time too.

I packed down my 7D with 70-200L/f4 (Canon) and 17-50/2.8 (Tamron) and then it was time.

The fog was very thick this morning so I decide to shoot in B&W this day.

I chose to go to a place that usually give me good pictures and this time I started my adventure in happiness. The car rolls and I look up to a field that has given me one of my best pictures ever and a scene that was on the picture then was even there today.

When I stand on my knees and enjoying the sights so began bull look uneasily beneath himself and all of a sudden, it was not alone.

Now that it's hunting around here, I get incredibly glad to see these wonderful kings (king of the forest called bull moose in Sweden) get away from us people who hurt so much by their environment and nature. Put away the guns and get cameras and shoot as much as you want!

I continue the journey and choose to go into new roads.
After about 30 minutes of travel so I park the car and go on foot into the deep woods for a bit of shooting and below are pictures from there.

That is a really nice set! Great captures of the moose, great detail of the web. My favorite seems to be the last one ... it has a very mysterious feel to it.

Hello Gunn
It's nice to hear that you like the set. The moose was hard to get right because the fog but I like the result. The last picture is as you, very mysterious and when the fog is here I can get the mysterious feeling in my pictures. So the fog isn't bad everytime :)

Nicely done. 5,6 and 7 are outstanding shots and capture the mood of the day very well.
