Description
I went back into my Teton/Yellowstone portfolio to convert this beautiful capture into a black and white photo that I hoped would make Ansel Adams proud, and to make it available as a Signature Series photograph as well.
Original Liner Notes Follow:
Schwabacher Landing is probably the #1 go- to place to photograph in the Tetons!
That said, it is next to impossible to come away with a capture that hasn't been photographed a thousand times before, but what the hell, Cowboys aren't the only ones that like to play in tune, so I went for it just the same!
On our last day (9/14)of camping in GTNP before heading up to Yellowstone, my friend and I arrived about 47 minutes before sunrise to claim our "spot" before the hoards of photographers arrived.
Wearing a headlamp, we ventured off into the dark and settled in on an area along side a waterway, but something did not feel right with my decision...
As I was trying to get myself centered, my friend went off on a scouting expedition further down the trail, and returned a few minutes later proclaiming; "Come with me, you'll be thankful that you did!!!"
He was right!
We came to a clearing that was slightly south of the ultra-classic location of Schwabacher Landing, and we had the area all to ourselves for a spell.
With this slightly different locale, I do believe that I possibly came away with a different perspective of this iconic location.
This capture was what we so patiently waited on, and we were not disappointed!!!
The waters were perfectly still (once we chased off the local water fowl), and this in turn produced perfect reflections of the Tetons as they basked in the first rays of the rising sun...
As mentioned earlier, we settled on this spot so that more layers (water, ghost trees, healthy conifers and mountains)were incorporated into the overall composition.
I am honored to be able to offer my photography of the beautiful Hudson Valley in New York and beyond for all of your purchasing considerations.
All of my photographs are available as prints, wall art, home decor, apparel, weekend bags, etc and are NOW offered with a canvas border, title, electronic signature and the year it was taken in 'The Signature Series Gallery'. You may continue to buy my photographs as they have always been available prior in all of my other galleries as well.
