The scenery and subject matter for photographers in the northwest and western United States is phenomenal! I recently spent 10 days visiting Yellowstone National Park and even though I have been there several times before, I never cease to be amazed at the physical beauty God has placed before us.
I managed to take about 3,500 exposures in those 10 days. I got some interesting animal shots with wolves, bear, elk, buffalo, eagles, crow and ravens -- each doing what they are supposed to do in the grand scheme of nature - each reminding me that the food chain is not linear, but a never ending cycle.
In the 10 days, I watched the fall colors race upon the scene with breath taking beauty as I learned an practiced new photographic techniques.

The Madison River at dawn's first light. For some reason (big smile) the Park is very quiet at this time of day.
A spider web near one of the thermals. Frost had gathered overnight and now with the first light of day the frost turned into thousands of small strands of pearls.
Stream near Old Faithful.

| What a great way to spend an early morning. |
