This winter portrait captures a lone bison—the steadfast lookout of the plains—on a snow-bright morning at Rocky Mountain Arsenal. I came across him on a solitary drive after dropping off the kids, and was struck by the way he stood there: calm, aware, and utterly unbothered by the cold or by life. The sunlight lit his rust-colored coat like flame against the icy blue sky, and the snow beneath him felt thick with silence.
There’s a quiet intensity in this piece—a sense of vigilance and peace living side by side.
