Bison bull on a hill – Nikon D300, f6.3, 1/1000, ISO 500, -0.3 EV, Nikkor 200-400mm VR with 1.4x TC at 200mm, natural light
I’ve wanted this image for quite some time, I had envisioned an American Bison on a hilltop with a clouds in sky for the background. Three days ago things finally fell into place, a bull on a hill top, good light, eye contact and a clouds in the background. This image is full frame and I almost had to take off the TC to fit him in at 200mm.
Sometimes it does all fall into place. I’m happy that it did.
