Yellowstone 4 - the cool ones

It's a bit cooler today, but I feel in need of a bit of visual chilling, so time for another Yellowstone post.  In terms of the photo opportunities there's no doubt the stars of the trip were the coyotes, which were seen everywhere, usually in pairs, although it was the Lamar Valley area that provided the best experiences with some very confiding animals.  The 100-400 lens gave some extra freedom to go in tight or come out.  Even so it was hard to believe at times just how tolerant they could be as you slowly inched nearer.















I never imagined being able to take a full frame shot like this,

although for some reason this view really appeals.  Maybe it's because it is just completely ignoring the row of photographers pointing glass at it.
