Nailed it...

Perfect focus on the pine trees, most other people would have been distracted and try to get the two 5x5 elk in the background in focus, but not me.


Ohhh, and around here it still looks too early for elk sheds.

It's kind of a cool picture.

You should add it to this forum...."in the background"

Those are some fine trees. Perfect spacing for Christmas baubles on that one second from the left.

jrebel, I might have another from the series that I just noticed another elk that I did not see in the first 6 bulls in the bunch. Somehow though, I screwed the focus on all the shots. That's what I get for trying to shoot after sunset with a handheld 400mm lens.

I actually love that its fuun to see the tree as the subject and elk in the background.

I'd notch my Christmas tree tag on that middle one anyday. Hey wait, what's that...

Still a very cool picture.
