Bulls, Hard Antlered, Standing
Bull Moose are a "common" animal to many of us Alaskans; but common or not, they never fail to stop me in my tracks. The mature bulls are huge, especially when they are in their prime. Ungainly looking, yet they move with an incredible grace belying their bulk. Dim looking (with those small eyes), yet they manage to make themselves scarce instantly whenever something is looking for Moose steaks! One can't help but admire them.

My shooting partner and I were walking out; calling it quits. It was spitting snow, the heavy cloud cover had thoroughly dampened the light all day, and we had failed to locate a large bull. And then the moment! The sun peaked through a tiny slit between the horizon and the thick gray clouds, bathing everything in golden light for a magical few minutes; including this magnificent bull Moose that simply, literally, appeared from nowhere! If you can't be good, be lucky! This bull looks particularly good when printed on metallic paper!
