Kiger Stallion #350603a - a photo on Flickriver

Kiger Stallion #350603a

            One of the dominant Kiger Stallions found on the north slopes (Kiger Gorge) of the Steens Mountain.  this image was taken while in full camoflage and sitting in the shade beneath a juniper tree.  I found these magnificent mustangs to be extremely wary of intruders.  It took me 3 days of glassing from a vantage point, watching and clocking their movements, before I could get some really good shooting.  They are a very spirited animal and very aware of alarms from the deer, elk and pronghorns sharing the same living area.  This image was taken a number of years ago just before a major reduction in numbers (gathering) and taken with Minolta film camera and most likely 100 Provia pushed one stop, accounting for the grainyness of the image.
