The top image is my favorite landscape photo from this summer. I just wish I had thought to take multiple exposures so I could have stitched them together in a true panorama. Then, I could print it huge. But, I didn’t. I just cropped a single frame to the panoramic aspect ratio you see above. …
The first picture is Reynolds Creek as it runs down from Logan Pass. The second image is the waterfall that occurs just below the first picture as the creek runs down the mountain. I shot these just before sunset, so this particular valley was completely in shadow. This allowed me to do some long exposures…
I took these on the hike back to Logan Pass from Hidden Lake in the early evening. Both pictures have hikers in the frame. You’ll have to look a little harder in the second one. Like I said in a previous post, it was pretty weird walking across deep snow in the middle of July. …
As you can tell by the first picture, I spent my summer training mountain goats in Glacier National Park. I got quite good at it. I had that goat sitting there for several minutes while I lined up and took the picture. Or maybe I just came around the bend and found him sitting there…I…
You’ll see a lot of these in Glacier National Park and they’re not very shy around humans. These pictures were all taken along the Hidden Lake trail from Logan Pass. Marmots are not very exciting, in my opinion. They’re not even that cute. The only reason I took any pictures of them was because I…
On my second day in Glacier National Park, I headed back to Logan Pass and hiked the Hidden Lake Trail back to (surprisingly) Hidden Lake. Even in mid-July, parts of the trail were buried in over six feet of snow. It was weird walking on snow in the middle of summer…and slippery too. Hidden Lake…
Here are two pictures of sunset taken in Glacier National Park. They were taken less than two minutes apart with the same camera, lens, and camera settings: 1/90sec,F22 at ISO400. They were shot in RAW. I just warmed up the color temperature significantly (to about 19000°K) in the first one to bring out the orange…
One of the few "grand landscape" type shots I actually liked from my trip to Glacier National Park in July. The peak in the center is Mt. Oberlin. The waterfall to its right is called Bird Woman Falls. And that’s McDonald Creek running through the bottom of the image. I was on Going-to-the-Sun road.
When I first got to Logan Pass, I fully intended on hiking back to the overlook at Hidden Lake. But when I started hiking back, I almost immediately came across a herd of bighorn sheep near the visitor center. Since this was only the second time I had ever seen bighorns in the wild, I…
This mountain goat kid was probably photographed quite a bit this summer. Both times I went to Glacier, the baby and its mother were hanging around Logan Pass. They are pretty accustom to having people around so I could get quite close without disturbing them.
