Teton Grazing
After a long, tough winter a small herd of bison are rewarded with emerging grasses to graze on with the snowy Teton Range standing watch in the background. Taken in early May this year in Jackson Hole, WY.

50D, 100-400L @ 100, 1/320 @ f/10, -0.33 EC, ISO 200, FF

Hey Wayne, nice to see some of your work from the Tetons! The earth tones in the foreground are very nice, but the snow-covered mountain and clouds really take this one to the next level. Great depth too. Thanks for sharing - hope to see more.

That view is just awesome! I like the shadow play on the peaks and the clouds. Man, you got lucky! Oh yeah, the bison are a nice touch too :wink:

Man, what a great scene! The mountains in the background balance well with your foreground. The Tetons are a magical place. I hope you had a good trip. I am looking forward to seeing more of your shots.

Well, Wayne, your not in Kansas anymore.
I really like the texture of the mountains.
The animals look a bit dark on my monitor.

Impressive shot Wayne, love those mountains!

Wow. Excellent work Wayne. Outstanding depth. To me, this is a rare case of having two focal points (the mountains and the bison) that don't work against each other. Thanks for sharing.

Excellent Wayne. I am preparing to depart tomorrow for Yellowstone, the Tetons, maybe WA and AK if all goes well. I hope to get something as nice as this.

Wayne,
Excellent photograph. So many layers to this and they all work together to provide great balance.

Great work.
