Into Yellowstone I go....

If you stand in Yellowstone National Park from 5 AM to 7 AM - it's amazing what will pass by. I do that a lot this time of year. I'm usually holding a paint brush, but other than that I'm very still and quiet. Often wildlife doesn't seem to notice me. So I get to see some AMAZING things - sunrise being one of them. This morning, a beaver was going about his business while I was painting. Then an otter stopped by on this way down the river. I shared some time with a fox too, but that we before it was light enough to get a photograph. Not a bad way to start the day....

My painting is in the foreground with 'my subject' beyond.
