And the journey starts!
The first stop was going to Red Rock Canyon for a beautiful scenic drive
After visiting - the next stop was Death Valley!
Who knew that the day after 60 degree weather that there would be a winter storm. Here are a couple timelapses taken during then!
For the second weekend we were at an empty hospital wing... changing it into a psych ward.
This week, it was all about Ansel Adams - black and white landscape. Here was my pick for the week -
5/52 - B&W Landscape
Here are a couple of the extras -
And because I can't resist - there are the color photos -
For this week the theme was "Headshot" - I took the term a little loosely... I photographed the fabulous Brittany Wagner.
Here is my pick -
4/52 - Headshot
Some of the outtakes -
This one was a little harder. The theme of this week was Artistic Red - so I took it in a couple directions...
Here is my pick -
3/52 - Artistic Red
Here are the outtakes
For this week it was to photograph a traditional landscape. I decided to keep it close and photographed Diversey Harbor.
Here is my pick -
2/52 - Traditional Landscape
Trying something new and going to try and do a photo a week (go resolutions!) For the first week it was self portrait.
Here is my pick -
1/52 - Self Portrait
Here are couple of the outtakes -
2016 is now here! 2015 was an amazing year - here is a small video of what I was up to for the past year.
And now for the trip back. Rather bittersweet, we all wanted to get back to our beds and be back in the city. At the same time we coming back to reality from this dream land that we have in United States. It's amazing how diverse this country is.
I would go back in a heartbeat.
Until the next one.
Didn't take that much video or photos because this hike was INTENSE. All caps. Four miles... 2600ft elevation gain... Got to see the tip of the highest peak - the Grand Teton.
Grand Tetons.
I feel like I am at a lost of words. I also feel like I can't ever bring anything that I took photo or video to justice, ever.
The Grand Tetons are just below Yellowstone Park. They are right by this beautiful glimmering lake. In which we got a small fishing boat and treaded the waters before a small storm came in.
Today was filled with driving around Yellowstone and seeing the sights. Which felt that we were in some sort of science documentary since there were so many strange things about Yellowstone that could only be in Yellowstone.
Acid water... geysers... almost post apocalyptic.
And then we got to see Old Faithful - which was strange having a huge group of people circle around this geyser at hour intervals and just sitting and waiting for it to go off. It was a very surreal moment.
Though my favorite part of Yellowstone was the Yellowstone Falls. We were at this area called 'Inspiration Point' and 'Artist Point' in which they were named rightly so. The colors with the blue waters were on point.
This is a short little post because most of the day was spent driving and going around Montana (and even into Idaho a little bit... to make it back into Wyoming). We stayed at the West Yellowstone KOA which was an impressive little campground.
We packed a lot to do today. We left Glacier National Park - which was my favorite park of the whole trip. We first hit hungry Horse Dam which was a nice stop and some great views of the river. We also realized the reason why Montana was called Big Sky Country.
After driving for a while we also did National Bison Range - which was pretty awesome view. There was a moment when we thought we would run out of gas during the park (it was like a mini safari). But nonetheless we made it with some great run ins with some Bison.
