User / jimf_29605 / Antelope -- "The End"
Jim Fowler / 14,652 items
Approaching Fantasy Canyon, near Vernal Utah, I looked to the left and slammed on the brakes. Standing there were a couple of beautiful antelopes -- as still as stuffed animals. My previous experience with those usually timid animals told me that they would spook if I opened the car door. Well, we got our camera equipment in hand, and quietly opened the doors, and nothing happened... They didn't blink an eye! They must have stood there for a full 5 minutes without moving an inch. We all managed to get multiple shots before the antelopes got bored and ambled off. Only then did we realize that there were four others in the brush waiting for them. This is one of the few times I've been able to actually set up and photograph a wild animal as beautiful as this...
