•  Info Thanks a lot for your feedback. I took this image yesterday at Tomales Point, the tip of the Point Reyes peninsula. It was one of my exchange days after WikiConference USA and I had marked the elk rut season on my calendar weeks in advance. As this was a Thursday, only a few hikers had found their way to this remote place. Now, I had hoped for some nice shots of bulls fighting with each other. However, the few male elks that I encountered were peaceful and quiet. That's why I could focus on the cows instead. After reviewing my shots today I felt like the specific colors of that foggy day added some nice atmosphere to the scene. Again, thanks for nominating and supporting this shot. Tomales Point is one of my favorite places and I'm glad I could capture some of the magic of this species, which was on the brink of extinction not that long ago.
