    I went looking for fall color in the Eastern Sierra

    Whoa! I'm glad you didn't drive off the road -- I'm sure it would have been a close call for somebody........

    Let's Try It Again - Cirque of the Towers

    Most of the thru hikers (CDT Canada-Mexico or vice versa, Appalachian or Pacific Crest Trails, etc cold hydrate. It's a thing. And they sleep in hammocks, maybe carry a bivi sack at most. 15L packs - smaller than most of us use to carry our camera gear (except those who wear it on their hip...

    Let's Try It Again - Cirque of the Towers

    I think I included the excremental part as a public service announcement. The camp host said that that is now the "new normal" -- a very sad state of affairs. Some "influencer" needs to make a TikTok or YouTube video about being a good steward for the outdoors.

    Let's Try It Again - Cirque of the Towers

    I went back up to the Wind Rivers since my last trip was so short. Jim Fox had shown me a photo to ask if I knew where it was, so I decided that must be a sign for where I should go. Since it's about an 8 hour drive and 9+ miles in, I decided to walk in a few miles (ended up being @2.7) the...

    Wonderful, Kurt. Looks like rice paper for a scroll or screen.

    A Peek Back in Time

    That's a fun place to go. Usually a good number of kids running around as it's so accessible. You handled the exposures well.

    A Grass spider.

    Its color matches the rock quite well. Did your granddaughter appreciate the photo?

    Knot-horned moth.

    An unremarkable looking moth from the dorsal view, but what a head-on shot!

    Southern Wind River Range, WY

    Thanks, Jameel. I tried putting the 2nd one into B&W & just couldn't get it to look good.

    Southern Wind River Range, WY

    Thank, Doug. The Ice Lakes area that I walked through to get there was magnificent glacial terrain, but it was on such a scale, I think only a drone doing stitched panos would capture it.

    Southern Wind River Range, WY

    This was much farther south -- Sweetwater TH, though some people access from Worthen Meadows. Those with stock came in from the north somewhere. The Winds are awesome!

    Tightening up the Milky Way!

    Nice comp, but the Milky Way is too hot for my taste.

    Mt. Rainier in August.

    That will be too late for Colorado. We had such a dry summer, some of the aspen are starting to turn from drought stress already.

    August night

    The ground fog makes for a nice, dream-like quality.

    Prairie Spirit

    Really nice series, Jeffrey! Curious about what spurred your interest in the subject. Did you feel a little odd going into these places?

    Southern Wind River Range, WY

    Thanks, Jim. I have a few more, but these were the big scenics. One thing that was different about this trip than all my others to the Winds is that my campsites didn't have views. This was the closest, with it being a 30-45 minute walk from camp.
