Dave's Northern 365 Thread

Jackson Hole is an awesome place just to visit. I'm sure you can see by the map that JH is on the southern end just below the Grand Tetons, which is almost as amazing as Yellowstone. In fact, you could easily spend as much time exploring the Grand Tetons as you could Yellowstone. That said, there are cheaper places to fly into like Cody, WY., but it wouldn't have near the beauty of Jackson Hole.

Well you would be my guide so where would be best lol

The best place to see the area would be Jackson Hole, the best place to see Yellowstone would be Cody, WY. I'm a little more than an hour away from Cody so from my point of view, that would be by far the easiest. But that's not to say the Grand Tetons are out of range, they're not and it would be criminal to see Yellowstone without seeing the Tetons.

Train. Something we have always wanted to do is take a cross country train trip. Still working out the details.

Unfortunately June is out of the question for me as we have block training that month.

Color. I
f you really want to do a B&W do it in a pale sepia tone. Make it look like it was taken in the dust bowl era.

I'm with Don on this, I like the color better but curious about sepia. Great shot, how many clicks in this.

Interesting read.

Reports bison ?fleeing? Yellowstone amid fears quake could trigger eruption of park?s supervolcano | News.com.au

To put it politely, the writer is an idiot. The saying, knows just enough to be dangerous comes to mind. The buffalo, also called bison, are always travelling the roads. They have learned it is a much easier way to travel. As for the other large animals that seem to have fled, since the wolf was reintroduced to the park the herds have thinned and moved to higher and more remote grounds that offer them a better advantage against the wolves in the open fields down in the park. The wolves have also started to figure out how to hunt the much larger bison since the other herd animals have moved on.

Figured I would share this with you. When the article first came out I wanted to strangle the writer. For the record, this is not an admission of planning a homicide.

I prefer the colour version too - The colour in the sky adds a bit of drama over the calm & quiet of the ground.

Homestead image revisited. I think this shot has legs.

Like that rework the best of the three, somehow more drama in the sky adds more feeling to the shot
