I'm new to dpChallenge, for the last few weeks I've been enjoying the site and tried to find a good picture to enter a contest.
I saw those cariboos on a trip north, they did run in front of my truck for at least 1 km before leaving the road into the snow.
I know that pain is not evident, but after seing them running and seing how difficult it was for them in that deep snow, they really seemed in pain to me.
As for the technical part, I know that it is a bit over exposed and I have a bad tendency to over USM my pictures, I will have to correct that.
Thanks for all the constructive feedback.
PS I'm not a hunter (except with acamera). These cariboos were not hurt at all.
