Unlike the billions of typical shots of Old Faithful in Yellowstone National Park, this image shows a golden sunrise behind the world-famous geyser. Even the ground steams as the morning sun burns off the rising moisture. This shot was taken in mid September at the height of the fall colors, when aspen trees paint the forest in shades of yellow, gold and red.
Bull elk live along meadows and the forest edges and often weigh up to 1,000 pounds. In September and October bull elk “bugle” and lock antlers during the mating season. The bulls show dominance to gather females during the annual rut.
