I crouched behind some tall grass and focused on the tops of the plants in order to get this type of image. The bonus was capturing the rain drops as they fell. This bull elk is a\u00a0member\u00a0of the Madison Elk herd. The\u00a0herd hangs around the Madison River which is located just east\u00a0of the town of West Yellowstone. The\u00a0location is popular with tourists, wildlife photographers and wildlife enthusiasts. We stopped there nearly every morning to photograph the herd.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10781\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10781\" style=\"width: 1500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/20160922-elk-27-edit.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"10781\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/2016\/12\/elk-in-the-rain\/elk-in-the-rain-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/20160922-elk-27-edit.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1500,1000\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Terry B.
