GoPro Hero10; 60 fps, 4k screen grab
In an effort to push myself creatively and maximize
opportunities afield, I try to take advantage of many tools
such as camera traps, trail cams, drones for scenic shots,
etc. One of my favorite tools due to its flexibility has been
the action camera. This is a screen grab of spawning brook
trout taken on a GoPro Hero 10 that did its work while I
photographed elk above ground. Sharing the outdoors
is what photography has always been about for me, and
sharing this little bit more is an opportunity I relish.

Leaping fox

Canon EOS 5D Mark IV; 1/500 sec, f/8, ISO 2000
After waiting at the edge of a meadow for more than
an hour, I noticed motion along the tree line about
100 meters south. Through binoculars, it appeared to
be a red fox. Following the fox through the camera
was difficult, let alone keeping it in focus as it twisted
through the sagebrush. When its head bobbed slightly
up and down, I captured several images of the fox
pouncing in a high arc into a patch of yellow
arrowleaf balsamroot.
