My work from McDonald Lake Lodge and The American West got pinged by a design blog called “Love is Better” yesterday whose author found my stuff interesting – thanks Christi!
I also got an email from Maurice over at Photovisi alerting me to this new cool and free photo collage service. You can use the link to head over there and you can assemble your photographs into collages, just upload the ones you want and drag them around to your liking (all within the comfort of your web browser) and then you can download it as a desktop wallpaper for free. If you’re in the market for printed products, you’ll find the option to buy the same collage on any variety of media as well. You can check out a collage I made of some of my tWp photographs after the daily photo.
Last summer we took Beartooth Pass into Yellowstone National Park on the recommendation of my father in law. He told us that it was special, he told us that it was breathtaking, but he couldn’t have prepared us for how amazing this drive was. We were short on time as it was, but we couldn’t help but stop at every chance and take some photographs of the beautiful scenery. After one of the last switchbacks and near the very top of the road, the road passes this incredible alpine valley that is flanked by glaciers (diminutive though they are in the middle of summer) and cradling an incredible glacial lagoon. I stopped and took an enormous panorama of the place. Today I’m posting just a very thin sliver of this panorama for dramatic effect – I promise I’ll post the full resolution pano tomorrow. It was noon and the light was rather plain, hitting the mountain tops dotted with the shadows of a few lazy clouds. The temperature was cold and invigorating and the place was so inviting – I wanted to hop the guard rail and surf down the gravel and go explore all the meadows and glades you can see in the photograph. If you ever have the chance – get yourself through Beartooth. http://flic.kr/p/7xwY2n
