Quiet Moment 2024

On a shimmering June day outside Telluride, Colorado, I sat in the shade of a cottonwood and watched the valley's resident elk herd move slowly back and forth, grazing, resting, sparring. Among them were several dozen spotted calves trotting after their mothers but also playing and chasing each other. This pair meandered off into the cool shade for a quiet moment to nurse. It was a privileged glimpse into an intimate moment, and I felt united with them in taking a rest from summer's frenetic activity. Limited edition of 16 prints.
