Spec savers for you Steve - that is a Moose  i wonder why I have a Moose as my avatar ???
Having come close to both species when I spent time in Canada you soon learn, but both can hurt you a lot !!

Not generally aggressive though are they? Is it dependent on the time of year like with Stags? |

Elk can be very aggressive. When I was based in Banff they used to come into town overnight and sleep by the buildings and in doorways. Nothing unusual to open the front door in the morning and find an Elk blocking your way. Asked the locals about it and they all said there was a very easy answer - leave by the back door or wait until it had gone. Moose are more placid except in the rutting season. At that time of year you had to keep well clear of the stags. Both are damn big, I would not pick a fight with either of them, beautiful creatures though

Spent a lot of time in the Rockies and Colorado researching both. Moose have an amazing lifestyle and are the most incredible creatures. When you first meet one face to face you suddenly realise what a majestic animal they are - just make sure you don't meet one face to face in the rutting season 
Ever since then I seem to have adopted them in one way or another, we have quite a few stuffed (toy !) versions in the house now
The winking MOOSE avatar could almost be like meeting one, they stare you out and then just wander off, I have never seen one wink before walking away though
Elk are just ..... like giant deer but not as friendly. I would love the spare one for the new 90 Steve

Was that with the internal flash or an external unit (or none at all) ?
The image quality is excellent

internal flash .. raw files are 47MB
converted to JPG much more forum friendly. In the end I took a Nikor 28-300 (FX) .. i was sent some Nikon vouchers for lenses, flash guns etc that last a year, so i can take my time choosing what i need. I'll be bringing it to the next meet. |
