Her Majesty [Explore]

Hiking back the Emerald Lake trail in RMNP, we stumbled across this cow elk grazing down the slope from us. She was very calm, looking at me directly a few times while I captured a couple of images.

 

She had a very stately, almost regal demeanor, taking her time and carefully observing her surroundings. If I thought it would be this straightforward, I would take up more wildlife photography.

 

Congrats on Explore!
