American Bison at Electric Mountain
ELECTRIC YELLOWSTONE – ELECTRIC NEW IMAGES FROM FLPA

David Hosking has just returned from a memorable 16 day trip to Yellowstone National Park in Montana and the Grand Teton Mountains Wyoming, USA.

Yellowstone National Park offers a fabulous opportunity to take images and this year David travelled with his new digital camera – EOS D60 to capture images of Bison, Pronghorn, Elk and Moose who are just starting their rutting season. David also had a great time at Electric Mountain at sunset, when the mountain turns pink as the sun comes up over the hills.

Fall was just beginning in the Teton Mountains and David took images of Snake River at Sunset, Great Owl, Bald Eagle, Coyote and Moose and fabulous close-ups of Aspen and Cottontail trees.
