Title: No deer but what a view.
Post by: Firedogg on December 13, 2014, 11:00:05 PM: I've been chasing the little blacktails around all month and so far all I have is sore feet and some pictures. Lots of does and three little button head bucks. A nice big bull in the timber, plenty of cows and a spike tried to become a hood ornament on the way out this evening. OK, I'm off subject.
This is one good reason for getting out, just getting to see this was great. I have never seen a rainbow so bright, wonder if it was because I was looking down on it. Any ways, this is from up behind Eatonville, you can see Lake Kapowsin behind the rainbow. No Photoshop tricks to enhance this one.
I work tomorrow so I still have Monday before I need to make some tag soup.

Most of the time I've got a camera of some sort with me. I always see the big elk during deer season and the big deer during elk. Go figure.
