I took this one just outside of the Bighorn Mountains in Wyoming on a warm summers night. Wyoming never fails to give you a sense of vastness with each sunset. What this picture doesnât show is the wicked winds that ripped and tore through our camp that evening!

This particular image has the Grand to the left, its highest peak with clouds clinging to it, and Mount…

Photographing the tetons in winter is a totally different experience than photographing them any other season.
