Hidden Falls, Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming.
This photo is also part of the Nature Valley ad campaign for Los Angeles and Orange County, California - this image will be appearing on bus shelters in the area over the next couple of months.
You might remember this images from last summer, it was from the Hidden Falls Trail in the Grand Tetons.
Well we have just updated our website gallery with all our new Grand Teton National Park Photos. Now that we have a fair amount of spring a fall coverage of the area, the lack of winter coverage seems like a glowing hole. Hopefully one of these year.
If you followed our travels through the Tetons on our blog, then many of these photos will look familiar.
If you have followed this blog for long, you will remember the wonderful time we spent around the Grand Tetons this past June. It is nice to have images from that trip already in print - from pond to print in less then 6 months!
This is one of the advantages of digital. During the days of shooting slides, a trip like the one we took to the desert southwest last winter would just now be making it to market. With digital, that trip paid for itself within just a few months!
These trips may pay for themselves quicker, but they won’t begin to pay for any of the homes in this catalog!
Here you can read more about our travels to the Grand Tetons on the photo blog.
Horseback riders this past fall in Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming.
If you followed the link in yesterday’s post on saturation masks, you will realize Tony also offers actions for something called luminosity masks as well. This is another subtle, but powerful tool that frankly I haven’t mastered and rarely utilize, but I plan to spend more time trying to master them over the next month as we begin to adjust our autumn photos.
So why discuss it if I don’t use them yet? Well, I have recently discovered another use for these masks that make them much more valuable, but I will save that for the next post. Again, this is a relativly advanced topic that won’t interest everyone. (more…)
Kayakers enjoying a warm, sunny fall day in the Grand Teton National Park. That looked like fun! (more…)
Sunrise from the same wonderful place as yesterday’s post. Yesterday’s Teton photo was at sunset.
Here are more Grand Teton Photos.
Now this is my kind of viewpoint! Unlike yesterday’s post - here I was the only person within at least 3/4 a mile. Just me, the crisp fall breeze, and the distant bugle of an elk. Perfect.
Here are more photos of Grand Teton National Park.
The bad news, the Grand Tetons is crawling with photographers right now. The good news, they all tend to shoot at the same four or five iconic viewpoints, with the beautiful Oxbow Bend being at the top of this list. (more…)
A cow and calf moose in front of Mount Moran, Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming. You can read more about our travels to the Grand Tetons on our photo blog.
A few minutes after yesterday’s photo. The light dusting of snow really helped.
Three pronghorn just before sunrise. Unfortunately they didn’t stick around for the beautiful alpenglow!
Grand Teton last night.
The Jackson area has been getting some much needed rain since we arrived, which means some wonderful fresh snow on the Tetons! Uneventful travel getting here, in fact every flight was early!
Janine just completed another new section to our website - Grand Teton National Park photos. These photos are almost all from our spring visit. Again if you have followed the blog, many will look familiar.
Janine has just finish updating our page of Yellowstone National Park Photos from our spring trip. If you were following the blog during that time, you will probably recognize many of the photos.
I have received a number of emails lately asking for more of the details behind each photo. It is a good suggestion, and I have promised to do just that on occasion. What I thought might be interesting would be to share my detailed thought process behind a single image. I decided to do that with this photo from our spring trip. I think some people might be surprised all that goes into just one photo. (more…)
Back to our spring photos - this was five separate photos of the Upper Geyser Basin, the Old Faithful Geyser and Inn and the other Park Service hotels in this popular part of Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming.
Here is another image from our spring trip. This panoramic is made up of 3 separate images. Unfortunately on the blog I am limited to 400 pixels in width which leaves it pretty small.
When Janine wasn’t with me on my Alaska travels, she was hard at work converting and adjusting photos from our spring travels. She also got help from Jenessa who we hired part time. When I’m traveling, my blog posts are usually photos that need little work. I thought I would now share some other images from the spring trip - ones that required the combining of images to overcome either wide dynamic range, or for the creation of panoramic photo. (more…)
