These two grizzlies were rescued by the Bearizona Wildlife Park when they were only cubs. Now just a few years later they are nearly full grown, but they haven't lost their passion for wrestling. These brothers put on an incredible show, chasing each other around the enclosure, splashing through their waterfall, and clambering over rocks. Despite their intimidating presence they are still just cubs at heart, playing around and enjoying each other's company.

I took this shot early in the morning at the Bearizona wildlife park in northern Arizona. The red fox is found all over the world and makes up the largest population of Arizona foxes. It was an overcast day and the foxes were very active, walking nimbly around their habitat and deftly jumping onto rock ledges. This particular subject caught my eye as it walked to the end of a rocky precipice before gazing off into the distance, totally at peace and in control of its domain.

While I was on a hunting trip in the dense rugged terrain of Young I stumbled upon a rough cliffside with vibrant red rocky peaks. I shot this in the later afternoon which gave the photo a richer color concentration and therefore a strong contrast of the red rocks and the dense green foliage surrounding
