I had fun photographing the pronghorns and the bison this fall though I only have this to show for it.

I do like it. I hope I will soon have enough time to chase squirrels and birds. I miss their pretty faces.

They're. They're still leaves on the trees and it's too dark in the wood for perfect images. I must be patient and wait few weeks. In mean time I will chase Chibi

I tried post-processing it, but I didn't like anything I did to it so it is exactly as I shot it.  The only thing I could wish for is a sharper image.  Resting my camera on the car window ledge is not a perfect solution.  However, if I'd gotten out and set up my tripod I probably wouldn't have gotten the shot at all.  The pronghorn are skittish.  Anyway, thanks Addam!
