A few from the Tetons
My wife and I were in Jackson last week, making some images for my new project. It was a good 5 day trip, with mixed snow, ice fog, clouds - a bit of everything. There was even a Jack Brauer sighting. Jack made a 4,000 foot descent to have dinner with us and brought along a couple of his cool friends - the Bryson's of Ridgway. Jack seems to have adapted quite well to his new environment. :biggrin:

I can't seem to get enough of the Antelope Flats area and we were lucky the moose were feeding heavily on bitterbrush in the sage.

Man, what a nice collection! That eagle shot is amazing. I love the cloudscape in that Mormon Row image, I can almost feel the conditions. Great stuff!

BTW, is that Jack in the first photo?

Nice bunch of images. I'm surprised you found a Moose with his shovels in place. Usually by the third week in January they have been shed.

Brrrr. Looks like it was cold but definitely worth the visit up there! I like the moose image the best, but they are all outstanding.

Wow. Nice moose and eagle is right.

Like the Gran Teton shot. Wonder if the tracks in the fg are worth removing. Front to middle on Mormon row is a good start, but the clouds are too much for me on the peaks. Maybe it is because I expect them to be there peaking out.

Marvelous stuff, all of them. I'm partial to #2.

Sure does scream winter in Teton country! I'm partial to the wildlife telephotos.

Dave, these are terrific! I REALLY like the Moose and of course the bald eagle shot. Looks cold...
Posted by Dan Walters on February 13, 2010 at 8:01 AM
Great images Dave! I really like the little bit of snow on the moose. The eagle is really composed well!
