Nature Photography by Gary D. Tonhouse
Iowa Prairies: 
Splendor in the Grass Photography Exhibit

Buffalo on one of Iowa's last remaining Prairie Lands.
These Buffalo are not free roaming. They are in a confined space.

Equipment used to capture this image:
Camera: Nikon F4s
       Lens: Nikor 500mm F4
Tripod: Gitzo 320   
    Film: Fuji Provia 100
Camera an tripod were set up at eye level.
I arrived on the scene at just the right moment. This gorgeous early
 morning side lighting only lasted for a few moments and then it was over.
Being prepared and knowing the strengths and 
weakness of camera/film helped in creating this image.
