A day drive in the Tetons

Howdee all,

September 13th, Jeff, Sicksta Charlene, her husband Tom and I went for a drive in the Tetons.

First stop a small pond. Lots of swallows flying around the pond and stopping to rest on the log fence.

Grasses and ducks …behind the log fence..

The day began clear with a thin blankets of clouds…

and patches of blue sky

in this photo below you can see that the clouds are thicker above us.  A common bird in the area.

Magpie As we drove the Tetons came into view

so majestic..Check out this interesting cloud layer..Does the Top of this Teton help make this cloud angle? …

   We stopped at the new visitor centre..Very nice designFrom inside ..large windows give you the large Teton views And a very nice interpretive center and gift shop inside

From the outside of the visitor Center…i get carried awayAgain…

I seem to do that allot…too many photos..I then change to wide angle shots

This one below I feature the sky

And then closer wide angle shots..

and closer

I switch to 4.3 aspect Ratio…and zoom in.. Back to the wide angle…another close up..

  A different angle…trying to capture the light hitting the mountains…And then I zoom in to try and capture the light shining on the snow …       As we leave….I take one last shot from the visitor center…with Trees in the foreground. We continue our drive…the cloud blanket becomes thicker…..

The blanket of clouds thicken even more and starts to cover the remaining blue….. Leaving a think Blanket of white above the mountains… When I see this photo below..

i think it looks like a poster backdrop in front of the cars Views of the Tetons from Jenny Lake Ok…so which Teton photo Do you like?…

Some are so very similar…like these two..one with more clouds (above) the other(below) with more trees..

I probably should have tried this particular shot in 4.3, just to see how it would like with allot more sky.

Some of these photos are very similar…yet different..Do you like wide angle shots…or the 4.3 ratio? Do you like more sky or more foreground?

I tend to favor sky…..but still playing around with this new point and shoot…
