~~Some Photogs...Really?~~


Yesterday, at dusk, I was photographing the elk in Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado. Because it is rut (mating) season, many people are out watching the elk activity. Another photographer stepped in my shot, so I simply said, "Excuse me."

He turned around and said, "I'm sorry...but my lens is bigger than yours...."

I responded, "Size doesn't matter when you know how to use your equipment."  

He left.
