I had the opportunity to take a trip to Yellowstone National Park in May. The variety, beauty, and constant change in the park fascinate millions of visitors a year. These pictures were all taken under a cloudy sky.
For this project, I shot each scene with my 65-300mm lens for an intimate and detailed perspective.
Springs and pools
So many textures on the ground
“Bobby socks” snags that soak up the minerals, turning the base of their trunks white.
A piece of the Grand Prismatic Spring
The walls of the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone

WILDLIFE
While not a wildlife photographer, I still love taking pictures of them! All taken at a safe distance, with many also cropped. Have you heard of the thumb rule? If you hold your thumb out at arms length, and your thumb covers up the animal, you’re a safe distance. Don’t pet the fluffy cows!
