We just got back Sat, and these are SOOC. I have about 2500 pics to go through.. but thought i'd share a few now. My wife, 4 daughters and I went to Rocky Mountain Natl Park, Yellowstone, Glacier & the black hills SD. We had a great time (cept for the 4700 miles in the suburban), hope you guys enjoy the pics. CC welcome as always.

    I think that's a young elk and not a mule deer. Nice captures!

    Possibly, but he still looks like Joe Camel

    Looks like a great vacation

    thanks for the replies.. I'll check some of the other shots, I thought it was a mule deer.. but i could be wrong ne_nau.gif

    And yes, it was a great time with the family. I know i was probably a pain to the kids with me constantly taking shots.. but with a good capture they can always go back and see and appreciate the beauty of these places. but for now, i don't think they will want to see a tent for a while rolleyes1.gif

    again, thanks for the replies
