Shooting SHOOTERS

Uploaded: August 03, 2012 04:11:49

Description

Yes thats one of the Mormon Barns off of Antelope Flats Road East of the Tetons. This was the second day I forced my brother out WAY BEFORE DAWN to get there . We were still beaten to the location by several others. They were doing a controlled burn in the area so the air was not a crystal clear as normal
I chose to shoot the Barn from the Left of their location JUST BECAUSE. Temp was just about freezing at this point of the morning last 9/26

HAVE A WONDERFUL WEEKEND

Exif: F Number: 3.5, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/30 seconds, Flash: did not fire., ISO: 2000, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 18.00 mm, Model: NIKON D90

Beautiful capture. You have to love these barns at the Tetons no matter how much you see them. Our friends were at the Tetons and said they couldn't find. them. Someone didn't do their homework. LOL. #10260924

I really like the inclusion of the people Jack - Great comp, sense of scale and capture! #10260958

Mary K. Robison August 03, 2012

Excellent capture of all the other shooters, Jack, waiting for that one perfect capture of the barn, hands/gloves frozen to their cameras...

Meanwhile, your brother's in the car, tossing back shooters, and you're wondering what you can possibly do to make up for his miserable morning...

Still, you did get a great photo ~ beautiful colors and sense of depth.

What a beautiful setting for this barn. Love all the photographers waiting to get their shots in. Excellent capture Jack. #10261341

I love the story behind the picture and I can see why this place is a photographers dream shot. I personally love old buildings like this. You got yourself a big bonus with all the photographers out on a nippy morning wanting to get their shot in. A treat to see all these folks sharing a passion. As far as clarity, your colors are rich, your sharpness on the spot. Great and beautiful work my friend. #10261439

Like they say Jack, the early bird...
A wonderful capture of a beautiful scene and a dedicated group of photographers! A splendid story telling image! #10261581

Excellent, Jack! #10261758

Michelle Alton August 03, 2012

Wonderful photo in such a brilliant setting. I can't put my finger on what you've done to achieve this sort of storybook look, but I REALLY like it! #10261905

Robert K. Bemus level-classic August 03, 2012

Way too early and cold for me...great shot, I probably would have taken some 'just because' shots myself...or cried 'wolf' to scare those people away.

No lens and no update... #10261945

Ujjwal Mukherjee August 04, 2012

Wonderful place, very well composed and captured,Jack!! #10261987

Debbie Bray August 04, 2012

Really wonderful image, Jack! Love everything about it, it almost looks like a painting! #10262137

Jill Odice level-classic August 04, 2012

I think the cold air makes for wonderful shots! I love how you have included all the others in the image, this has to be the most unique view I have seen of these barns! #10262427

Craig D. Minton August 04, 2012

I like this! Cool composition, Jack. The lighting really conveys the chill. I think I might be a bit intimidated walking up to that many photogs. #10263097

Antonio Amen August 05, 2012

Yes Jack. You get a lot of them at the same time...doing nothing...lolol. Have a nice day. #10263295

Amanda J. Tanner level-classic August 07, 2012

Wonderful comp and dof. Very nice work Jack! #10266106

Lorna Shutter August 08, 2012

Now that's what I call dedication! ... Getting up so early and standing in the cold! ... but I'm sure I would do it too if I knew I would get a shot like this! That barn looks fabulous with the blue sky and mountains in the background! Love how you included the other photographers in the image! Excellent capture, Jack! Wonderful title and description as well! :) #10267525

Heather Loewenhardt level-classic August 11, 2012

No wonder it is photographed so often. I would go early but jockeying for best POV might not be so much fun. #10272307

Renata Gusciora August 16, 2012

Very cool shot,Jack! I like the light and warm tones! #10278456
