@William: As I was passing through Wyoming. Thanks for the comment!
Wow, great perspective! It makes the scene very dramatic (also makes you feel like a prairie dog yourself!).

wow, outstanding pic, i like the perspective, the frame is perfect but i don't like this processing, because it's visible (for me it's must me invisible)

this is a great shot - were the prarie dogs that close to the Buffalo or is it the perspective?

@Art Monkey: This is really three different photos.: clouds, buffalo, and prairie dogs. Assembled in Photoshop. I took these shots in 2003 while traveling through Wyoming. Thanks for your comments!
Wow,really great shot Craiger.
Love your prairie dogs photos, excellent pp and perspective!

Wow! What a great shot.

This is nice! I wish I had the chance to photograph some of these animals in the wild. All I have are monkeys =)

@LittleKitty: Yea, but you got great insects and crocodiles I think! :0)
LOVE THIS SHOT! Ok, how'd you do it?? Because I'm thinking there is no way you got even that close to the buffalo (even with your 300mm zoom). It's such a great concept... once again your creativity shines through!!

@amy: Thanks Amy! This is three different photos: clouds, buffalo, and prairie dogs. All shot during a road trip taken in 2003. I didn't have the ability to put them together until after reading Daniel Giordan's book recently. All three photos were taken within about 100 feet of eachother. The buffalo really were that close! But, I was even closer to the opened door of my car! :0)
Wow, talk about being in the perfect place at the perfect time!! Amazing shot!!

Those Prairie dogs have cute feet. A good attempt at PP, the 3 images have worked well together

Those prairie dogs are so incredibly funny! I really love them.. And what to say about your shot.. it´s just amazing, buffalos make it so strong.

Impressive image . I like it!

Ah! A composite! I knew it was too good to be true :) It looks really real, however -- nice Photoshopping!

Real photo work. God bless photoshop. The result here is great.

Absolutely great Photoshop work. When I lived in Alberta I should have been able to get photo's of buffalo, but I never did. Got quite a few prairie dogs though, but they looked quite insignificant compared to this. I should have had photoshop then. I don't think I even had a computer then - haha! Great work- keep on going!

Another great ensemble! These must be very well-feed prairie dogs, they almost look more like groundhogs than prarie dogs!

Wow. Excellent composition! ... although it it's a photoshop
