Out West Pictures (warning: image intensive!)

As promised, here are some of the best pictures I took on my out west adventure. I took 1,777 images total. (And that's not taking into account sparky's photos or my parents-in-laws photos!)

My jealousy runs deep, both for your trip and your photography skills.

I would have learned a lot from life if I hadn't spent most of my time being educated.

As I told littlechris earlier, at least you all get to share in the pretty pictures. It may not be the same as actually going there, but it's close. And as far as "skills" in photography, it was a simple point and click camera that I used. I've just got an itchy trigger finger so I'm quick on the draw. Thanks!

Ah, but the eye that guides the twitchy trigger finger is what picks out the pretty pictures! ^_^ *still wants to cuddle the marmot*

Then you have amazing luck with getting the critters to pose for you. Very nice!

I'd been told that Yellowstone was like a zoo; animals just walking down the road, in the middle of towns, etc. And it's true! There were bison that looked both ways before crossing the street, a bison that was in the correct traffic lane, elk that simply took over Mammoth Springs in the evenings and a coyote that also walked down the road. The only thing I wish we'd seen closer would have been the wolves. They were about 1.5 miles away and my photos of them are blurry and you can barely make out their ears and heads. But the spotting scope we had with us allowed me to see them as if they were 25 yards in front of me. They were magnificent!
