The Mountain Photographer's Lament


We, as photographers, are required by our genetic code to take photos of mountains.  Primal imperative and all that.  But the derned things are **so** shy.  For instance, we have here the triplet of Owens, and the Grand and Middle Tetons, along with me on top of the Muffin freezing my butt off with a camera.  In the twenty or so minutes I was up there, the top of the Grand showed for just one frame.  Can you see it?  No wonder we drink so much!

Forest Fire


No real fire-- the snow at elevation was still 5-8 ft. deep.    Just mountain weather trying to keep us guessing on an early (June 1) snow hike up to Table Rock.  Thankfully, this was about as serious as it got.  Hopefully a few more shots from the day will be forthcoming.
