Friday Shoot Out - relaxation

Here's a shot of me relaxing, camera in hand on Shallow Bay Beach.

The next day we saw these two moose relaxing in a cool pond on a hot day

  1. Moose are such amazing creatures. My NYC born husband loves to quote a statistic about Maine - more people are tragically killed in Maine by hitting a moose with their cars than by other people. I know a bit morbid but interesting nonetheless.

  3. I love the moose photo. I find water and wild life so relaxing. I enjoy watching them go about their business of life for hours x

  6. That is a great panoramic shot of you, I have yet to use my camera on that setting, but now will give it a go...love the moose, and have wanted to stumble upon them one day; its on my list of animals to see in person, and outside of a zoo, but not suddenly like Denise's comment :)

    Very nice...

  7. OK, rub it in. We drove all that way and never saw a moose. But maybe we were traveling a bit too fast. - Margy

  9. The moose look very relaxed, grazing. Grazing is a peaceful activity. The water looks very impressionistic.
    You have such a way with a camera, Elaine. Have a peaceful week.

  17. I wouldn't necessarily put moose and relaxing in the same context, but I like the originality of it!

  18. Thanks for the kind comments everyone. I have marginal online time this week so I won't have the opportunity to make the rounds and visit my Shoot Out pals. I will have one next Friday on "signs" though - have a great week everyone!

  22. Every moose I've seen has been super relaxed. I understand they can get quite aggresive, though. But, they do know how to take it easy.
