This week, a few more fun photos from my trip to North Dakota in September at Theodore Roosevelt National Park.
I was sitting on a park bench trying to get photos of prairie dogs and about 10 buffalo came right over to me making them easy photo targets... (Image #9007)
This curious baby buffalo wasn't too sure about me... (Image #9020)
After the buffalo moved along, I was finally able to get a nice photo of a prairie dog. (Image #9065)
The morning I was scheduled to fly home, I had planned to wake up early to try to get some photos at the "Painted Canyon" overlook at Theodore Roosevelt National Park.
It was about 5:30am, and I was still waking up when I saw a flash of lightning followed by thunder out the hotel window. At first I was a little disappointed that my sunrise photo would be a wash... but then realized I may have a chance to capture lightning photos!!
So I headed out to the overlook. Here is a buffalo in the glow of the sunrise and behind me where the storm was still gathering... (Image #9311)
...A rainbow was forming over the Painted Canyon overlook at Theodore Roosevelt National Park. The colors were Amazing in the morning sun. (Image #9348)
As I turned a little more to my left, I saw and photographed... well, let me just say this... you will not want to miss Monday's photo - it's definitely one of a kind!
