Those are perfect. I was talking to my girlfriend about a roadtrip to banff/jasper alberta and i think those pics will do all the persuading.  That is exactly how i remember the place when i went six years ago.  The water colors up there are incredible.

It ended up being a better choice.  I went moose hunting last year and got more moose shots.  It was really a down year, with no bulls over about 360".  Up there, photography is like pizza or sex, even when it's bad it's good.  We got a report that some of my usual spots did not hold big rams this early and I couldn't find anything over 175" so I didn't even shoot  sheep.  I did take a day trip out to the Cadomin mine and spotted a ram with about 16 feet of horn (195").  Images aren't good so I'll save you all.  Amazing how a large ram can take your breath away even through a lot of glass at about a half mile away.

Thanks all!

P.S. - I saw Timber posted a few over at huntfishnw and on his website at www.jontimmer.com.  He got a lot of different stuff that I didn't get.
