1209_0066 Bison
More from my ongoing Bison series. Strong backlighting lit up the rim of this animal, but also cast part of its shadow onto the dust, creating an unusual effect. These are great, dusty beasts; in fact, dust baths and mud wallows (where available) are part of their daily health and grooming routine. This fellow had just given himself a good shake. When I saw the dust, the light, I just kept focusing and shooting until the dust settled. Grasslands National Park, Saskatchewan.
