Elk
(Edited)
After completing two shorter hikes around Anette and Edith lake, it was time to move on to the next adventure. The next planned location is Pyramid Island, which is not too far from here, probably about thirty minutes or so away from this place. Driving along, I spotted this Elk, all by itself walking near the road. The easy thing to do would have been to grab the smartphone, but I really wanted to get some high quality photos to post here on Hive. So I went the extra mile and slowed to a stop, grabbed the DSLR and rolled down the window. Only problem was though, the animal wasn’t staying put and was moving along. So with great difficulty, I pulled off about 6 photos, but only 3 made the cut. Photos taken inside Jasper National Park, Alberta. Here they are:
Camera: Sony A7R III
Lens: Sony 24-105mm f4 G OSS
Editing: Lightroom

You have taken some very good photos in a natural habitat. I loved them, I love animals.
Always a pleasure to capture some wildlife pics. Thanks.
Wildlife is just hard sometimes, they don't like to corporate most of the time, haha. Like they care what we are doing... Lol Awesome shot's my friend, its so enjoyable to capture stuff when you least expect it.
Had to act fast on this one. One handed photography..
This is a very cool catch,In our place it is very difficult to find deer,But there are many of them in the wild, but they are hunted so much that they are now rarely found.
Canada has a lot of elk and deer. Thanks.
👌
Stunning looking creature.
Yes, very much so!
Lots of blue sky and water in your images, a little more elevated than where I spend most of my time. Beautiful landscapes and beings up there!
Canadian Rockies are really superb. That being said, I could spend a little more time by some warm beaches too. Thanks for the visit.
I'm up for a short exchange as long as you've got plenty of firewood and grub in stock!
Done deal.
I should buy a coat too I guess :)
Certainly wouldn’t hurt.
Nature seems to be so compromising in your land with mountains, rivers, landscapes and to add to its beauty more of greeneries with Elk playing around. It seems very reluctant to pose for the photo. Anyway looks good amidst your chase for a photo.
Tried my best, but he didn’t feel like posing for me. Imagine that!
May be he was also tired my friend.
Magnificent! You couldn't have done a greater job🤗
The Elk was incredible. Thanks.
I think in this part of the world, it's the wild goat, hunted for the delicacy of its meat.
Your shots even captured the beauty of its strides.
Thanks @tranquil3.
wow... You work very well, photographing one of the objects that is constantly moving is very difficult, although you managed to capture these three great deer images I think it is already very perfect. Thank you brother I shared drugs again with us, I love them.
Hey thanks for taking a look!
Beautiful photos. Beautiful Elk. You must have been very quiet. Or a very good Zoom.
It was relatively close, and on max zoom.
😍
Awesome photo graphs, that's a big critter.
It was very large yes!
Handsome! The horns are magnificent.
It was quite a beast!
Nice shots! Elk are such big animals but very fun to see them out in the wild. Very cool pictures!
