Location: Yellowstone River

Description: It's hard to get a great photograph of an icon that has ben shot a few million times already. However, with a little "illegal" hiking, and a new technique, I think I may have captured somehting new in something so old. The Lower Falls of the Yellowstone is one of my favorite places. I used to hike down late at night and early in the morning for a bit of solitude when I worked at the Canyon Lodge in the early 90's. If your are willing to venture a bit, and find the right times, you still can have the whole canyon to yourself.....July 2004

Description: I've spent a lot of great times in and around Missoula. I have many friends that make it their home, and we try to visit as much as possible. However, even after dozens of attempts, I had never been able to capture the right image of town. The location and weather had just never cooperated for me. Then finally, on a recent early October morning, I hiked Mount Sentinel in hopes that the sunrise would light up the fall colors that had begun to start to change all over the valley. As a few students from down at the University of Montana began to gather around the M and watch what I was doing, I finally got the image I had always wanted. A full 200 degree view from the south canyon to Lolo, all the way north to the Bitteroot River and the Rattlesnake.....

Patience

Location: Gallatin River

Description: Shot in July, 2003. Even though it is thought there are no Grayling in the Gallatin, it has been a stocked fishery for the low population Arctic Grayling for several years (see FWP website for stocking info)..... I set out to capture a fly fishing shot with all the elements of the moment above and under water. The biggest challenge was to shoot the fish in their natural habitat. But with a challenge, also comes a reward. After three days of snorkeling in the upper and lower Gallatin, shooting hundreds of shots with whitefish and rainbows, and setting up the fly casting shot with my buddy and dog, I not only finally got a pair of 8+ inch Grayling, but in turn I found a new sport that I think I love more than fishing itself! Free floating down a river with snorkel gear! If you have not tried it, I recommend it to every fisherman or anyone who likes viewing nature and a foriegn landscape in which we can not live. .................**Being that I am calling this a photograph, I should for the record also state that this image is a photo illustration. An illustration in that the above water shot and the below water shot were taken on different days, though n the same or very close to the same location.

*As seen in the book "Montana Panoramic Volume 1: 1997-2007"

The Pryor Mountain wild horse herd is one of the few wild horse herds of the Spanish descendants remaining in the US today. I had been cruising around the area all day, sitting and watching 3 separate herds trying to find the right angle to get a shot with the Bighorn in the background. Later in the afternoon, this group allowed me to get about 200 yards to them and get a few close ups with the big lenses. While sitting in the hot red dirt surrounded by sagebrush, something spooked them from behind and they came stampeding right at me! I quickly changed lenses and stood my ground, hoping to get the shot and not get trampled. My heart was racing, I could not believe it, they were passing right in front of exactly where I had wanted to get the shot! I fumbled a bit on the exposure settings, and hoped for the best. After shooting fast as I could (moving objects in a stitched panoramic are not easy) I slowly caught by breath and stood up to watch them pass by. The lead mare had stopped about 25 yards and was staring at me, trying to get a smell of what I was about. I said thank you. She gave a slight nod (or at least it seemed like a nod) and she was off to join the others in the rising dust over the plains.......May 20th, 2006

Survival

Location: Yellowstone National Park

Description: I hiked down into the Lamar Valley a bit to get away from the carloads of others watching the scene below. I sat about 300 yards watching as a couple of wolves slowly and methodicly circled around a herd of cow elk waiting for an opportunity....The bull in the forground (about 30 yards from me) seemed unconcerned with the wolves. He and about 6 other large bulls just sat around and mulled for grass under the deep snow without a care. Survival of the fittest indeed.

Triplets

Location: Grand Teton National Park

Description: I got up about 4 am on this cool spring morning with the intention of hopefully finding some good wildlife. I had not gotten close to any grizzlies in a few years, and was hoping to see one. Not even 10 minutes into the hike, I saw a young grizzly from about 20 yards away. I quickly grabbed the camera and and the bear spray and hoped that mom was not too close by.....But there she was, slowly meandering through the brush, picking at roots and insects. Then came one more cub, then another....triplets!!! I did not know this was possible, but there it was. I spent the next hour following them from a safe distance finally getting this pano as the sun rose over the valley.

We paddled into the worst blizzard I've ever been in, I've never, ever been so cold as on this trip (a little frostbite was had) and I've never enjoyed sitting on a warm rock in the sunshine so much. Ahh, the simple pleasures....Shot in May 2002.
