2110_2054 Pronghorn in the Fog
Exactly 15 minutes after shooting yesterday's image at the edge of the village, I stopped for these Pronghorn does in a field just off the road. They were part of a large herd of about 25, which included one obviously dominant buck. They are looking toward him (some distance away and out of the frame). At the time he was busy rounding up other does in his harem; the rut has been over for several weeks but herd structure will be loosely maintained until next spring.
Away from the river, the fog was patchy. Here it was so thin that I was tempted to add some extra contrast in processing, but in the end decided to keep the look as close as possible to how I remembered the morning.
