Crags of Yellowstone Falls

It was a softly lit morning in Yellowstone on this day in mid September. I came in thru the west entrance before sunrise to explore the landscape before the increasing light started getting harsh. I love waterfalls and while the lower falls area is not a hard place to reach, the various lookouts up the valley are magnificent.

I think I planted myself at Lookout Point for this one. I was inspired at the awesome beauty of this place. I know hundreds of people photograph these falls every day and I wanted to take my time to try for something special. I was careful in planning the composition and went for a silver process from the start to focus the eyes on the water and tone in this landscape. I’ll let you be the judge of how well I did.

For photographers. How it was made…

River Queen – Taylor Falls, MN

This one was made a few weeks back. It was a drippy day during this years HDR workshop in Minnesota. We stopped by Taylor Falls during our excursion and took a photo walk through the park along the St. Croix River. Light was not at it’s best, but we did our best as we discussed with each other how we might work certain scenes to fit our style and get something worth printing.

We were about ready to move on, when someone found this viewpoint. There was the Queen, resting majestically along the riverbank and waiting for the sun. I’m was told it’s not stopped here often. It immediately struck a chord with me. There was something here to photograph. I setup the gear for a long exposure, taking the time to carefully plan and get it right. It payed off with this photo as the result. It’s going to look great on a metal or canvas and will appear in the signature collection soon. I’m stoked.
