[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The Hayden Valley in Yellowstone is a favorite hangout of bison. I love to see dozens of them scattered along the open fields. Sometimes I stop to wonder what would have happened if we hadn't almost exterminated them and we ate buffalo insteaad of domesticated cattle. Anyway, that's the power of seeing it with your own eyes.

Hi Mike,
I really admire this pic and the comment you´ve made. You´re talking about exterminion and you show us in your pic many trees cutten down (I don´t know if by a storm or by a human force), and that bison walking like trying to find some place.. I don´t know, it shocks me.
Great picture, really. Congratulations!!

Hello Mike,
A good point of view and a fine composition!
The beautiful animal has been captured with very good details, and I like to see how it is moving forward...
Fine lines in the composition, and good natural colours!

Hi Mike,
