| After a day of plein air painting, a small herd of elk were grazing in the sagebrush backlit by the setting sun. The elk on the right is said to be "standing sentinel" for the group as they feed. Should there be an intruder (like myself), this elk would alert the others to the danger. In the background above them, looms Grand Teton, another "sentinel" of a different kind. |
