The Grand Tetons abounds with wildlife. On my last visit I found this very picturesque female Mallard looking for her breakfast right next to a reflection of a Tetons themselves.

This picture wasn’t planned and actually turned out to be quite lucky. I was walking back from where I had been photographing the sunrise and saw the duck slowly swimming up and down the waterway.  I framed what I hoped would be a great shot and waited and waited for the duck to swim to a pleasing position. The light initially I thought was a total bust, but it did shine through in quite an interesting way, so I am really pleased with this unexpected image.

This trip as I look back on the images I took turned out to be very fruitful despite the crazy weather that I experienced in just a short period of time. Here, here, and here are some other images from the trip.

Enjoy!

The picture for the April 2010 Print of the Month comes from Temple Square, in Salt Lake City, Utah. This area is the home to thousands of tulips in the spring time. This day a misty morning and blue sky made for amazingly colorful images.

I love the colors in this image. It feels like the entire pallet of spring colors are present in it! I smile each time I see it and can’t wait for spring to come again. Now that spring is here, this image is the one that I am excited to celebrate it with.

The print of the month for March 2010 is one that I took many years ago outside of Yellowstone National Park. It was taken near the continental divide near a small little place called Kilgore, Idaho. I am incredibly lucky to have had the chance to go to college for a while near here, and to have grandparents who have a cabin in the area. I have been able to photograph around the area for years.

This picture was made after watching these intrepid flowers bloom in the area for many years, in July. Many times snow in the area would cover them well into June. This image was made July 5, 1998 so it is beginning to fall into the oldie but a goody category!

This picture of flowers facing the sunrise is one of my favorites that I have ever taken in the Kilgore area and anywhere else for that matter. I know you will enjoy it!

The print of the month for February 2010 is one that I took recently in Death Valley National Park. It was taken in Badwater Basin, one of the most famous sites in the park. I had been camping and shooting in the area for several days and decided to stop and show the tourist trap to my brother and sister who had never been on a whim.

Well as photographers will always tell you, “I didn’t intent to make an image but then I saw something that caught my eye…” Ironically I owe this shot to my brother who made a crack about me showing him up again. Well since he was teasing I had to put in the best effort possible. This image is the result. I really like it. So thanks Robert for teasing and pushing me further along! It always pays to have somebody there to push you along when you might slack off. That is often when the greatest rewards come!

I know that you will enjoy this picture, the detail in the pool is amazing. The water was perfectly still on this day with no wind at all in the air! I have been here on days that the wind and salt almost blew me away!

This months Print of the Month is once again a favorite! It comes from Bryce Canyon National Park, and is titled “Thors Hammer Sunrise, Bryce Canyon National Park.”

This image took me many years to capture in Bryce Canyon. Most of the time weather never worked out for just the right scene. Here it did finally come together, ironically when I thought it would be a bust again. This image is a great print, and I know that you will love it! The sunburst sets it apart from my previous attempts at photographing this Bryce Canyon icon.

I am very excited about the Print of the Month for December 2009. This is getting to be one of my most favorite images I have ever taken.

The Flowing Lines of Zion’s Narrows comes from the fine art collection on this site, and as the name implies was taken in Zion National Park. For me the patterns, lines and subtle colors draw me in each time I look at this image. I know that it will please you as well!

This is the November 2009 Print of the Month image. This is a picture that I am especially excited about this month, it comes from Zion National Park, in southern Utah.

This picture was taken in November 2009 at the height of fall colors in Zion National Park. This was a picture that I had preconceived and had been unable to capture for several years. Finding this scene lit by reflected light was especially nice. The reflected light makes the golden colors of the leaves especially luminescent.
