In reply to Merle Becker. Thanks for sharing your work! I like both the color and B&W. The B&W is obviously more dramatic, and the yellows of the prairie with the white of the mountains is beautiful. I've been shooting a lot of raptors here in Minnesota. I have a family of Great Horned owls next to my house with owlets that I love to photograph. Would love to see bears!

Hi – I prefer the color shot. Your pictures are great! Wish I lived near where there is more wildlife. I can’t seem to be at the right place at the right time.

although black and white can be very dramatic, This picture looks best in color. IMHO

I prefer the color shots. B/W has it’s different view, for me, it takes me to the mountain top. Where color shows everything. Thank you for the beautiful pictures.

The last shot of the beaver reminded me of a moment I had over 30 years ago. I was swimming in my neighbours trout pond. It was a pretty good size, 2 or 3 acres and I was floating on my back. It was the end of the day, the sky was still blue but I could see a white sliver of the moon overhead. A butterfly landed on my nose and I thought it doesn’t get any better than this. Then I heard a slapping sound. I turned my head and there was a beaver about 30 feet away swimming towards me slapping her tail with about 6 or 7 babies following her slapping their tails. I rolled over and swam as fast as I could for the dock.
Thank you for sharing all your great photos.

Thank you for sharing your work, Trent. Great photos. It’s so nice to escape the politics and pandemic for a little time with nature that cares naught about either.

Love both of them but the color one is so warm and inviting. the B&W is stark and cold.
