For a fleeting moment the light was marvelous through the viewfinder.
The variety and abundance of the managed grasslands is most evidently successful, as the rough fescue is mixed with smooth aster, yarrow and goldenrod. I went as low as possible to catch it. Imposing and splendid, the bison watched our every movement, protective of the herd and menacing. Therefore, we kept close but quiet and slow, as our guide admonished. I took off the flash and its Beamer, just in case.
