Rack 'Em Up

Marie Antoinette? Naaaah, It's Marie Antler-Net

Photographs copyright: DAVID McMAHON


With this week's theme being "Wild", I figured I'd keep you in suspense here. Did I manage to creep up behind an old moose with tatty antlers? Hmmmm, the focus is certainly on the state of that rack.

So let's keep the camera in roughly the same frame and simply switch the focal plane, in order to see what's in the background .....


So, I have to confess I wasn't really up close and within whispering distance of an old bull moose. No, sirreee, I was using my camera at the gas station at the aptly-named hamlet of Moose Creek in the Yukon.


It's all good, I'll just switch off the GPS because I think I can figure out exactly where we are on the Alaska Highway.

This moose (below) was a great subject, but I have to say he was a little, er, wooden.


And if I step around him very carefully, I might even be able to get a shot of this rusty old truck with a great hood ornament.


Yup, I guess the horn is definitely in good condition. However, I suspect that the rest of the vehicle might not quite match up.


I just hope you had as much fun as I did. Next time, I'll see y'all at Moose Creek.
