Description
I saw pronghorn both in Yellowstone and Grand Tetons. I always think these animals are so pretty and a bit exotic looking. They are the only surviving member of the Antilocapridae family. 12 species of this family existed during the Pleistocene period, 5 when humans entered North America and the Pronghorn is the sole survivor.It is not technically an antelope, but is called one because it resembles the antelope from the old world. Information cited is from Wikipedia.

Nature, animals, beauty have been a source of nourishment throughout my life. Photography allows me to capture, interpret, and share that world of wonder I see about me, and sometimes use what I capture as an inspiration to create something new, by incorporating other exposures, textures or brushwork.
I currently reside in Oregon, an environment rich in nature's graces. I have lived in California and New York, too, and everywhere there is a world of beauty around us, if we care to take the time and look for it.
