Description
The female Elk had roamed away from the herd and was nibbling on grasses, and when she looked up, I took this photo. Perhaps elk, like us, need time alone sometimes. Having the sun shining from behind her caused her to have her silhouette lit up by a golden light as she stood there, and the crepuscular rays created a magical scene at sunset in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado.
Rocky Mountain National Park's 415 square miles (265,807 acres) encompasses a spectacular range of mountain environments. From meadows found in the montane life zone to glistening alpine lakes and up to the towering mountain peaks, there is something for everyone to discover.
