Things started slowly this winter in my quest to find and photograph moose but they certainly have picked up over the past month. On this particular morning the cold temperatures were creating heavy mist off the river and the rising sun was backlighting it beautifully. The mist was thick so at first I couldn’t see any moose, but as I traveled along the river, I eventually found not one but two. The magical light didn’t last long though as a layer of clouds moved in and blocked the sun changing what as a wonderous scene of warm tones into one of gray light. So needless to say, I was glad to have captured this image when I did.
