Took a short drive a few days ago, leaving before sunrise, and came across this scene. A large herd of elk were moving away from the road with the early morning light hitting the peaks of the Madison range. Since these weren’t elk from the national park and aren’t habituated to people, I knew if I got out of the car they were gone. But I didn’t have the angle I needed from the car window, so I opened the sunroof and poked up through it, using the roof to support my lens. The elk were fairly cooperative and the encounter really got my adrenaline pumping. What a great start to the day!
