This area of Jackson Hole is known as Mormon Row. Dozens of Mormon Homesteaders settled in this area of Jackson Hole back in the late 1800's to around 1910. Mormon families who filed claims near Blacktail Butte built their houses along a three-mile lane that became known as Mormon Row. There are still some buildings/barns left over as kind of Historic relics of the region. As I landed in Jackson Hole Airport on my recent trip there, I was headed towards Yellowstone when I spotted this rainbow materializing from the storm that had just blown through the region I quickly drove down this familar road I have been down dozens of times photographing the barns to try and capture it. It only lasted maybe 5 to 8 minutes at best. This is the results..( Part2 of Rainbow Over Mormon Row Series)©2005GaryGlass

A beautiful catch Gary.

Artist Reply: Thank you to everyone, I am glad you enjoyed this image.. Yes Rainbows are hard to catch as they usually do not last too long, I barely was able to catch this one as it was just barely showing up against the sky as I was driving down the road and I did not have time to put a polarizer on my lens which would have made it stand out even better. I had just left the airport on my way to Yellowstone after arriving a hour earlier and my camera gear was still put away. SO it was quite the site seeing me racing down this road, pulling over and frantically digging through my camera case trying to set up this shot...lol
