Before the Storm
by Rod Frederick
In artist Rod Frederick's world, wildlife is another natural piece of his wide vistas, soaring trees and sky-scraping mountains. It is autumn in Before the Storm, and the bull elks are at their prime from a summer of feeding. As the season shifts into winter, the bulls are called to rejoin the herds by the cooler nights and shorter days. Each bull collects his females on the way down to winter range, the numbers of his group limited only by his ability to defend his mating territory. "Although young bulls usually avoid confrontation, the meeting of two similarly-sized bulls is an undeniable call to establish dominance," says Frederick. "A silent challenge passes between the two males, but the next move - and the outcome - is unpredictable."

To Surf the Sunset
by Rod Frederick
“Bald eagles, our national symbol, have come back dramatically from near extinction over the last fifty years. They’re a very common sight where I live in the Cascade Mountains in Oregon. I never get tired of looking at bald eagles, nor do I ever tire of the sunsets we get here, looking toward the West and the Cascades. This horizon in particular lends itself to a longer image, one where you can look in every direction and see something. I wanted to show the eagles as they flew across the skyline, using the last fading rays of sunlight to find a place to roost for the night. They’re surfing the sunset, riding those last thermals before they go to bed.”
