[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
On the last day of our trip to Finland,actually underway to the airport again,we spotted this female moose with her probably 1 year old calf,quite difficult to take a picture between all the branches and as you understand had to change over to manual focus,anyway I was quite satified with some of the results,hope you like it as well,

Hi Paul,

Very good Moose picture. They are quite timid and though they are a regular sight I have never managed to get any photos. Anyway, you should not get between those two, the mother may get very agressive. Nice pose and composition, good sharpness of details. You managed well with MF.

TFS

Hallo Paul,

De Elanden zijn goed gecamoufleerd in hun natuurlijke omgeving.
Goed gezien want dat zal niet meevallen.

Hoi Paul,

Mooi shot van deze elanden waren zeker moeilijk te spotten.
Lijkt me heel mooi in Finland.

Hi Paul

A great shot of these Elk/Moose showing their typical habitat. I like the way they are peering above the twigs.

Splendida cattura, molto bella la composizione ambientata con gli arbusti in primo piano, che creano difficoltà tecniche, ma offrono un bel documento naturalistico, buona nitidezza con perfetta messa a fuoco sugli animali, molto belli e naturali i colori. Grazie e complimenti. Ciao Maurizio

Hi Paul,
Wonderful shot of this mother Moose and its calf hiding in the bushes. Very impressive sharpness and the bright sunlight gives it perfect illumination. A skillful work done. Excellent POV and composition. Kudos.
TFS.
