birdshooter > This is a panorama photo of Polychrome Pass in Denali Park.  Click on the "Original Size" and move the bar at the bottom & right side to view the whole image.  The photo cannot capture the beauty of this place.
birdshooter > Remember the tip about light; the best light is often before sunrise.  Take a look at "Elk in the Mist" taken at Yellowstone National Park in September of 2001 along the Madison River.  It was cold and I was the only photographer out there that morning.  The bull elk above was trying to keep his cows together on the river bank.  The mist from the river and the predawn light makes the photograph. Get up early and get out there.
birdshooter > Joshua Tree forest, Joshua Tree National Park, California

Originally a color slide, it was converted into Smugmug black & white
birdshooter > Rocky Mountain National Park; Sprague Lake.  To correctly measure and expose low light scenes, meter the cloud above the dark tree line.
birdshooter > This photograph was taken in Yellowstone National Park on the Firehole River using a Nikon F100, Fuji Velvia slide film.  The exposure was f/16 @ 1/15th sec.  It has all the qualities of a great photograph; soft light at dusk, clouds to difuse the sunlight, water, and there is some action with the fly fisherman.  I actually waited until he got into the frame before taking the photo. You can see the foreground, middleground and background are all in focus.  The subject (fly fisherman) is in the right third lower corner and not in the middle of the frame.

By the way, this photo hangs in St Lukes Episcopal Hospital gallery of "best of show" winners.  It also won me $250 prize.
