Clearing over the ridge part 2
Once I took my initial shot using my 30-90mm lens I decided to attempt a panoramic series. My shot from yesterday was taken only inches off the ground. This shot was just the opposite. I brought along a tripod that allows me to shoot seven to seven and half feet off the ground (I’m not that tall, I brought a step-ladder). Probably the most important thing when shooting a panoramic is to make sure the tripod is level with the ground. Next, I try to make sure each image overlaps by 30%. By doing this, you can easily stitch the images together in Photoshop without having to crop much of the edges. This shot was a total of 10 pictures, 28,932 x 6714 in size. I liked using the 120mm (equivalent to 90mm full frame lens) because there is very little distortion and has extraordinary sharpness. I hope you enjoy.

Clearing over the ridge
This is probably one of the most popular places to take pictures at Grand Teton National Park (Mormon Row). We set and ready for sunrise around 0530. I knew it was going to be a wonderful shoot because there were no clouds to the east but many to the west (over the mountains). This cloud formation probably only occurs a few times a month, we were just fortunate to be there for one.

Grazing – part 2
Oxbow Bend – part 2 – sunrise
It’s rare to have many clouds at sunrise in the Grand Teton National Park. This was a shot about 45 minutes after sunrise. If you wait, you should find some.

Oxbow Bend – Grand Teton
The next few weeks you will see a flood of pictures from my trip to the Grand Tetons. If you haven’t visited, I highly recommend. Oh, and if you like to take pictures, get up early and stay up late!
