Waited, like everyone else. Eventually a ranger showed up. They use some kind of clicking noise that get the bison to move along. Often the road is the easiest route to get from point A to point B. You can get stuck for hours sometimes.

The image almost feels photoshopped—it has a surreal quality as if the buffalos are composited from another image.

Might have oversharpened, that sometimes gives that effect. Might also have been just enough separation between the bison and the cars at f/4 to cause a natural difference in focus.

More Spring Yellowstone

I can't compete with spring in Yellowstone, but your shots inspired me (as well as our first sunny day in five days) to get back out and capture wild Trilliums in bloom:

I wonder where you could be?

Next weekend (starting the 24th), I'll be heading out on a 8 day birding tour in Oregon. A rented 600mm f/4L IS III will be coming along for the ride. I'll probably be posting birds for months.

Here's a few more to end my first day in Yellowstone. More dramatic as the light falls. I have a few more from the next morning to get to processing still.

Lovely as usual Swamp ... shot this tonight, on our first night up north for the cottage season:

July 1st (Canada Day) to July 4 in Southern Ontario

This August we are celebrating my father in-law's 90th birthday and the 75th anniversary of the family cottage. He was 14 when he and his father started to build the building you see in the second photo. His parents bought the property shortly after the death of his older brother (first photo), who was a navigator on a Lancastor bomber shot down over Belgium on a bombing run into Germany. My wife is the youngest of 13 cousins who share the cottage. Our family often books the first week of July. We are very blessed—Happy Canada Day and July 4th celebrations.
