Description

Made my brother get up EXTRA EARLY so we could catch the absolute best light of the day when we got to our location this morning. SO
While about forty people were busy shooting the Famous Mormon Barns, I was busy being myself and NOT SHOOTING THEM. Sometimes the thing you come to shoot is just OVERSHADOWED by something you feel is BIGGER & BETTER and completely different. So I spent the majority of this VERY EARLY MORNING ,SHOOTING THE GRAND TETONS & BUFFALO.
Besides the Big Hills being surrounded by a moving Buffalo heard is not something you get to do every day. So you take advantage & enjoy and stay between the parked cars ....

Exif: F Number: 14, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/60 seconds, Flash: did not fire., ISO: 200, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 78.00 mm, Model: NIKON D90

Bravo for you! I get so tired of the exact same shot of the Mormon barns. Rarely does anybody do anything different with them. This is just breathtaking!
The back is much better (so far) today! #1463407
