Well well.....I been to long at Tetons...However in my View ZION is beautiful but TETONS is the best....I like desert colours its beautiful .....its on Fire....aan no tripod...it was pure Snap shot with my D70...I was just riding around to get feeling of it...and u be the judge http://www.aphoto4you.com/Photo_of_the_Day.html I know u have seen 1000's of Tetons from me..but this sure is different...This is not PHOTOSHOPPED and no filters.....just crop I was snooping around for wildlife an this took me by suprise...

Bianca, Its a beautiful image... you can't go wrong with red and blue. Why are you always saying.not photo-shopped? Most people who think things are photo-shopped don't know alot about photography. You don't need to defend yourself if you did phot0shop, its your creative vision not the viewers. I have know some people who have changed there style cause someone didn't like how they photographed or edited images. A great photographer (peter lik) was once asked what filters or what editing he did to his images, his response was I used the alarm clock filter.

Markos, Most of the time i do use Photoshop....One way or other....U are right in your saying.... Story is long about that...and woudnt wanna open can of worms...lol...I cant agree more with u what u have said... I used to say who cares if it is photoshopped...Ansel did in his own way photoshop of his days....But some get their feathers ruffled these days if one uses photoshop...So there is reason why i did say that cause i was attacked in the past by those who cant stand a great work...enough said on that And u are right it can influence some people including me and start changing style...Now that u said that makes me think why for what and who..Most people dont know much about it..Thank u I am gona go tonight again to see what i can get...Last night sky was all pink/red ...All day yesterday was high serra clouds....and seem to me will be today...Those clouds create beautiful sunset...Will see what happen...I am slowly getting taste of it...:) Thanks RQ :)

That's a great image Bianca, love the red rocks and how it looks like it's on fire. If you're staying there for a while like you mentioned, you might be able to catch snow in those buttes. What a beautiful area. I agree, photo-shopped or not- a great image is a great image.

Marko is right Bianca,, you don't have to defend if it was photoshopped.. that is almost like saying, it was darkroomed... as photoshop has replaced the chemicals to make a image.. although you can actually do more than you ever could in the darkroom.. The final image is your intrepertation of your scene.. you can do anything you want with it.. it is as you say, my vision of what I saw and how I wanted to convey it... the only ones' that are that concerned about photoshop are the purist.. who feel a scene should stay exactly as you found it.. and that is great if that is what one wants to do. But if one wants to created a little more feeling or expression in it,, so be it.. It is no different than a painter embellishing his painting of a scene.. you have those that will be faithfull to what they saw and there will be those that enhance it in a creative way.. The end result is your creation and you can do what ever you want to showcase to viewers.. Plus there will have to be some photoshop or correcton as there is inherent flaws in the capturing ability of electronics , you know the type, sharpen a bit, color balance .. BOTTOM LINE,, The Image is "MY Interpretation" Go have fun out there..

Gary, I understand and that is true..It was always my beleive who cares what photographer did with a image as long as image is eye catching and as u said "MY Interpretation" However..................... Anyway i am waiting for weather to clear and temperatures suposed to drop down to 30's here...i be looking for snow ....and i will rush up there ....I have lots of times... When i first got here i had to wash my RV, groom the dog, groom myself after being woods woman for 6 month..lol...wash my van...which took beating on Tetons roads...etc etc... Now i am gona be ready to explore...And i surely hope i see some wildlife as well... But scenery will do ...i like great looking scenery...I am missing a lens between lenses i have...and i might have to get a lens...

Bianca, yes wave to us! lol! That live Webcam is at an Inn called Red Cliffs Lodge. It was placed at the Colorado River corridor and Fisher Towers. It says that because it's a rural area GOOGLE, MAPQUEST and some GPS systems are returning INACCURATE driving directions for the lodge. And they're trying to correct the situation. Here is a link to directions: http://redcliffslodge.com/about-the-inn/directions.htm And the sun is just coming out right now I can see some silhouettes, you can see the webcam here: http://www.redcliffslodge.com/webcam/

Will you go there and stand? I don't know how many know of the camera cause I never have seen anyone standing by the fence only people in rafts in the water... Today is a yucky overcast in Moab as well, the good thing is usually clouds don't hang around all day. Its still fun hiking on cloudy days. I want to live there cause even if the weather is crappy its still fun, hiking, biking off road, next time I am there I will take a airplane tour of canyonlands... they have one in the morning that will be fun.
