Leaves Edits

Leaves

The second and last picture were taken on a path along the Musselshell River in Roundup Montana. The first photo was taken on Rocky's campus. I like the first two photos more than the last photo. I tried to use photoshop to edit these photos.

Yellowstone inspiration!

The photo I chose for this blog post is the eighth photo down in the article. The photo is of an elk standing in the rising steam of castle geyser at sunrise. This photo is backlit. The photo was taken by jim Zuckerman. I really like this photo because it is soft yet powerful. The beauty and simplicity of the photo is inspiring and makes me even more excited for our class trip to Yellowstone National Park!

Alaska

This photo was taken by Mike Criss at the wildlife conservation center in Alaska. I like this picture because it is not taken from the basic angle that most wildlife photography is taken. He said that he used a Canon for these shots but did not go into the specifics. Another reason I choose this shot is, my group is planning a trip to Alaska and I thought it would be interesting to add a photo taken in Alaska.

These photos were taken at Zimmerman Park on the rims at sunset. I like the sunset picture because the colors in the sky are so intense against the dark shadows of the trees. The second, of the grasshopper, was taken while I was waiting for the sun to set over the ridge.

This photo was taken by John Hyde, it is of a brown bear cub, on Admiarlty Island in Alaska. I really like this photo because it is really playful and fun. It really shows that this little bear cub has a personality. He seems like he is bored waiting for his mom! I also like how the cub and the downed tree he is resting his head on are in such sharp focus.
