We found a bunch of elk! This time they were close to the road. They didn’t care that we were hanging out. I was thrilled to see them. They were around 300 elk. I was able to take my sweet time taking photos. It was like a dream come true. It was hard to single them out.

Every time that I found one on the viewfinder. The elk were looking back at me in the eye. That is the most beautiful sensation. The big game was acknowledging my presence, which brought comfort and warmth to my heart on a frigid morning.

Soon after, we arrive. Conor spotted this lonely fellow on the other side. He was surprised to see us. The light was so pretty on that side. It was foggy behind him, and the pink light of the sunrise. I thanked God the whole time for giving us the perfect light for me to be able to bring the heart of Wyoming to your home.

When he reunited the group, it was as if he had brought the light. I couldn’t believe my eyes, and my adrenaline was to the max. I saw the landscape waking up with him. It was pretty cool, to be honest with you. Moments like this pay off waking up before sunrise.

Young bucks were playing around. If you were quiet, you could hear them making noises with their antlers. They were taking turns. The group was feeling the warmth of the sun when we left.
