Tetons Sunrise-Fall

Since I haven't been out shooting much this summer (not landscapes, anyway... focusing on abstract work these days) I have been processing lots of photographs from years past... here is one from my trip to the Tetons Fall 2005. Morning fog coming off the Snake River, from the Blacktail Ponds Overlook. Canon 10D, 17-40L.

I love this shot Nat. First of all, it instantly makes me yearn for fall backpacking trips. Secondly, the frozen mist on the evergreens, makes me think I can almost smell the damp cold air. And of course, the obvious feature, there's the other-worldly light on the Tetons.

The scene seems to beckon me to take a stroll straight into that forest, and just disappear in the mist for a while.

Nice.

Real nice, Nat. I'd almost be inclined to cool off the foreground color a bit to make it fit the mood even more.

Todd - I like your suggestion, here's a revised version with cooled-off foreground.

Both are real nice but that second one takes the cake, Nat. Nice work.

I'd go one step further with the foreground and crop it just below the first little trees. I don't think the foreground scrub adds anything. Really amazing fog though!

Beautiful shot! The second one is just perfect! Love the light on the peaks and the morning mood. Wow!

great lighting and mood Nat- Todd great suggestion!

Great light on those peaks! Is this digital or a scan?

Very nice, Nat. I like the expansive view down along the range.

Simply awesome Nat. Enough said. Brings back wonderful memories of my own experiences up there.
