Wildlife Photo Competition 1 2013 : Entry Number 324

Judges Comment

This is a lovely natural scene with nice light and a powerful short depth of field. These great animals seem so content here wallowing around together in the reeds and the water. The communication between these two moose makes this image special. I also love the weed in the antlers and the drops of water. This is the wild, the atmosphere is so real, honestly, I am sitting in the canoe too!

My name is Randy Kroll. I captured this photo while on an afternoon hike at Silver Lake near the Brighton Ski resort in Utah. I used a Canon 20D and a 70/300 lens for this shot.
