Tetons at Sunrise
On a dark, cloudy, windy morning we were wondering if any light would be getting through at all during sunrise. Then this happened!
Mormon Row Barns
So different from my previous visit here in the spring time. It was a cold windy morning with a definite sense of fall all around.
Snake River Overlook
Nice view of the Grand Tetons with the Snake River winding through the foreground.
Fall Color at Oxbow Bend
Mt. Moran peaking out from under the clouds with brilliant aspen lighting up the foreground.
Colorful aspen line the Snake River bank with Mt. Moran in the background.
Sunrise at Schwabacher Landing
The Grand Tetons beautifully reflected in the Snake River early on a wonderful fall morning.
Lower Geyser Basin
This is Celestine Pool. These five images were all shot in the early morning, some before sunrise. This was such an interesting subject. Every time I returned the lighting and clouds had totally changed the scene.
Firehole Lake Drive
A very active thermal pool steaming away early in the morning along Firehole Lake Drive.
This is a portion of anohter thermal pool in Lower Basin. The lighting and steam give it a jurassic look and feel.
A river of thermally heated water flows from it's source destined for the Firehole River nearby.
Black Sand Basin
This is Opalescent Pool in the Black Sand Basin. The pool is cooler than most other surrounding thermal pools and is surrounded by "Bobby Socks" trees. The "Bobby Socks" is actually white silica.
Midway Geyser Field
These are three shots of people walking to and from the Grand Prismatic viewing area in Midway Basin. Shot on two successive nights at sunset, the steaming streams of water are from several large thermal pools above.
Mammoth Hot Springs
These six images all depict the viewing area of the upper terraces. I found the dead blackened trees particularly interesting.
