omorrow, Wednesday, August 14 brings me to the last four book and print signings of the summer in Yellowstone National Park. I’ve had a lot of requests this summer for landscape photos so I decided to add several new images to the display for this month, including the three seen here. Above, a sunrise view of Mount Haynes towering over the Madison River made the selection. While I have plenty of images of Mount Haynes, which isn’t actually a mountain but rather an ancient lava flow, this one appealed to me the most due to the light on the cliffs and the colorful clouds.

This next image was taking a couple of summers ago when they did the teepee displays in a few places in the park, one of them being the amphitheater at Madison Junction. These scene really didn’t need anything extra to make it beautiful and honestly, I had hoped there was enough fog in the background to obscure the teepees as it was the foreground that brought me to this spot. And then of course I wasn’t thrilled with the people walking around. That is until I came back to this image on the computer. The foreground is great but I feel this image grabbed a piece of the past, depicting a native American village along the river. The people walking around only added to that feeling and gave it life.

Finally, I opted this image from Grand Teton National Park. Yes, I stock a few images during my signings from Grand Tetons, since it’s the sister park to Yellowstone. And I’ve had a hard time keeping them in stock. I went through some summer images and really liked this one with the low angle and lupine grabbing the scene, balancing it out nicely. As I wrap up the summer signings this month, I’ll take a good look at what I’ll stock up for next summer and perhaps add some more new products as well.
