Thirteen-Years Ago (01-September-2006) — Wyoming

Gone to See America 2006 Driving Tour. Day 7: Grand Teton National Park and Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming.

After spending the night in Jackson Hole, I started the day at Jenny Lake. It was cold out as I got some pictures of the Grand Tetons and their reflections across the lake. Later on a panorama of the Grand Tetons, and then off to Yellowstone National Park for a quick visit to see Old Faithful geyser. In the afternoon I returned back via Jackson Lake and Jenny Lake to Jackson Hole. All of the images have been re-processed current tools (Topaz JPG to RAW and Capture One Pro).

Gone to See America 2006 Driving Tour. Day 6: Mineral Hot Springs State Park, Wyoming.

Gone to See America 2006 Driving Tour. Day 5: Devils Tower National Monument, Wyoming.

This was my first visit to Devils Tower. Coincidently, the movie”Close Encounters” was on cable at the hotel where I was staying the night before.  The images were all taken with a Nikon D200 camera and either a 18-70 mm kit lens or a 80-400 mm VR telephoto lens. Unfortunately, I only had the camera save jpg images during the trip. These images have been reprocessed using Topaz JPG to RAW and Capture One Pro (including the conversion to monochrome). Two of the images are black & white with one color. I do want to go back and do some night sky & star trails with the tower as the background.
