Thanks, Steve! Here is my secret recipe for taking decent photos -- take hundreds of them, and a few of them are bound to turn out ok, just by accident. ;)

Or, find one you like in a book & go looking for the location. I just spent half a day wandering around Jumbo Rocks campground in Joshua Tree National Park looking the the tree & rock that Laurent Martres had in his "Photographing Southern California". I did find it, but had to give him credit for the composition:

Jon - you must have a lot of Books to look at because, you, like Don, have shared Images that require a good eye, and great composition.

Thank you Both, for sharing those images/and your adventures as you both explore areas few even dream of.

Thanks,

Tried the hundreds method - and get a good one every now and again - now am in the take 1,000's - trouble is seems like I can never find the good ones, just takes too long:B

I have a feeling - just by looking at the Images that you take more GOOD than bad,

Always enjoy your images - Just beautiful.

Thanks,

You're not alone. Professional photographers do this same thing.

Tetons in October

There's a great Nat'l Forrest campground east of GT but it closes sometime in Oct. and probably more early that late. Late Oct. would just be too cold for me but we've been there in late Sept./early Oct. What about Gros Ventre campground? Look it up. Or a private one in Jackson?

There are a couple CGs up on the Gros Ventre red rocks is one crystal creek the other.

Crystal Creek closes Sept 10 and Red Rocks is not one I've found.
