moose - Grand Teton National Park - 10-02-09 01

While looking for photographic opportunities along the Snake River as it flows through Teton National Park, I came upon this scene at a place called the Oxbow. Photographers gather here from all over the world to capture Mount Moran as it is reflected in the river. I took only a couple of shots as the light was not compelling and began to fold up the tripod when a moose wandered out of the trees just as a ray of light shone through the largely overcast sky to illuminate the scene. Serendipitous to say the least. Sometimes you get lucky.
