The Skyline Trail...............IR

[Panther]

Hi All,

Another from the Archives.

This one's from the Skyline Trail just outside Cheticamp, Nova Scotia. What a wonderful place and
for people like Us that aren't into Hiking that much was a Dream come true. Can you spot what KK is
taking a Picture of ???

Thanks for Looking, Take Care,

Nice looking setting and the IR casts an interesting mood to it. If it's not this same scene I have no idea what your friend is focused on.

This is really cool Craig. I like the inclusion of the other person kind of hidden in here.

And that is a cool looking moose there, no wonder you guys stopped.

This is very good.

Hi Alan, Thanks, it was an Overcast and somewhat Gloomy Day, so it really added to look and feel of the Trail.
I think Jim Spotted the Subject !!!

Hi Jim, Thanks very much, it was just such a neat place to see and shoot.

The Moose bedded down was quite a shock as she'd had Her head down then raised it up. The Skyline Trail
is well known for having a large population of Moose so while we knew they might be there it was still a thrill
and shock to see her. Also, on the way back she had a little Surprise next to her ;-)

Hi Alan,

Here's the IR Version of what we'd seen .

The shape seems quite obvious in the closer views - I just couldn't quite decide what that was in the original scene since it's mostly a dark spot.

Hi Alan,

I wouldn't have been able to discern what it was either most likely, what a thrill that was. We were just so excited to see our first Moose.
Then, we walked around down the Boardwalk and came around a little bend, and this one scared the Hell out of Us !!! We never heard a sound before or after !!!

Thankfully, he just meandered off into the Forest.

Take care,

Craig

Hi Alan,

He was a Moose , Sorry couldn't resist, We ended up seeing 10 or more along the trail and back.
It's a good thing they're somewhat used to people as we were so tired and worn out we sure couldn't
have gotten away !!! They were so stealthy that it was kind of spooky how you'd just suddenly see them
where you'd just looked, and then they'd be gone.

Take Care,

Craig
