Description
My husband and I planned a January trip to Rocky Mountain National Park, located near Estes Park, Colorado hoping to have the opportunity to take some wonderful snow pictures. We don't have very much snow at all in our home area of east Tennessee, and it seemed like our chances to photography snowy landscapes in Colorado would be fairly high during one of the coldest months of the year. The area had very little accumulation when we arrived, but near the end of our adventure, we finally did experience a blizzard and were happy to capture the white stuff with our lenses. This image was taken as it was beginning to get dark on our first day in the park. A large bull elk was foraging among the limited vegetation on a bitterly cold day trying to get something to eat. With the bare branches, patchy snow, and gray skies, I think this image conveys the general mood of January in Colorado quite well.
