Description
The sun has slipped behind the mountains leaving little detail on the east slopes but rendering quite a display in the sky... Teton Range, western Wyoming.
P.S. Our present camp grounds is in Torrington, Wyoming next to the North Platte River along the old Oregon Trail...this place is known as the Goshen Hole...and it is a big hole as far as our internet connection...will catch up on comments when we get back into a place with better internet connectivity. Honest:)

Wonderful, you are staying in a beautiful place. xx,
Amazing capture my friend!!!Bravissimo!V:DDD.Hugsxx Whylma
Very nice capture Bill.
The light in this shot is spectacular, Bill - it is radiant. This landscape is definitely gallery worthy...
magnificent vista
Beautiful photo. Would like to walk in the water (but I bet it's from the Grand Tetons and thus very cold). I've heard of the Goshen Hole a lllooonnnggg time ago. I thought its name came from "Oh, gosh, what a hole!" But being an Internet hole, too, it must be something special. If you can, a few photos pretty please!
My, following your posts is like having a geography lesson and history lesson all in one! I've seen more of the US through your photos than I've seen while living in the US. One really gets to appreciate the country in another way. Thanks! Keep up the good work! :-)
I love this serene and peaceful scene Bill.
Lot of atmosphere in this capture.
Beautiful light and a wonderful landscape, Bill, captured in challenging conditions of looking into the light.
Stunning capture Bill. God bless.
What a fabulous place !!!
Stunning Bill.
A spectacular view of a spectacular mountain range, Bill! The Tetons are fantastic!
We managed to get into Wyoming far enough to see Devil's Tower. Mostly the weather was rotten, then Jo came down with a nasty cold - so we came back a day early.
You have captured a very wonderful atmosphere !!!
A stunning sky behind those looming peaks!
Such a beautiful and tranquil place. Gorgeous shot.
This is such an incredibly lovely shot; the detail is there in those mountains, so much so that it almost looks like a Bryce render. What a beautiful landscape you are in!
Wow. And this is why you're a landscape photographer. What a glorious image! The light is everything, of course, and you've captured it perfectly. Outstanding image, hon! :*
A quiet moment... superb. I visited this area some eyars ago.
Superb shot, Bill. One of those images you can look at and it just relaxes you.
Bill, I'm just doing 1 comment per gallery right now, to "get my fingers wet"...but I'll be returning to do a bunch, soon. I chose this for a few reasons. First is that ultra photogenic sights always strike me as some of the most difficult to photograph because---being ultra photogenic---they take away the photographer's will by taking over the shot. It's hard to break through the "hold" they have over the camera, allowing the photographer to speak. You commanded the sight utterly. The sight isn't making the shot, you are. And that brings me to my 2d reason: The crop, the sweep, the contrasts of texture between foreground and background w/ perfect detail in the beach and mid waters, for instance, your capture of light in the mid-zones contrasted with the dark splotch of trees behind it, the sheer atmospheric haze of the mountains which feels like a seductive gown upon them, and the silken texture of your sky with light and clouds sweeping out of it both majestically but also intimately (the sky feels intimate, not just majestic)---this is one breathtaking landscape. Ditto Tara (and others). And the other reason is the crop itself, the longitudinal sweep. You framed it perfectly. Even the detritus in the left side beach and the lone groyne or post in the water are perfectly placed. I know you didn't place them, but you chose them as part of the shot. Beautiful work, and---with tara---a 100% Bill shot.
(I'd pay to see someone like you put down your camera, sprint into the background, move the mountains 'a little to the left', move the shore 'a little to the right', run back, look in your camera, shout, "damn!" and then run back and try it again...After, say, an hour, you'd scream "voila!!!" And you'd take your shot. Then you'd have to put everything back---it's a national park, after all---but if you could pull that off once, I'd pay you big bucks.)
