Nubbins | Yellowstone Waterfall This Yellowstone waterfall lies within the Kepler Cascades. To capture this image, I had to climb down and back up a rather steep incline. I would not do it again. It’s too dangerous without proper climbing gear and experience. Note: I post an image everyday at hankconrad.com.

Nikon D300 Salad | Oxbow Bend Snake River Mountains OxBow Bend is located along the Snake River near Great Tetons NP. It’s one of the most photographed places on earth. In this image, Mt. Moran stands majestic in the background. Several coyote packs could be heard in the distance. Also, black bear, grizzly bear, moose, elk, and wolves call this area home. Unfortunately, the wildlife did not appear except for a couple of river otters. As Mt. Moran became reflected in the Snake River and the morning shadows began to change, this composition appeared.
The Back Story To capture this image, I arrived at the the Ox Bow Bend turnoff a little before o’dark thirty. A light snow cover greeted me at the turnoff. Just after first light, I climbed down the slightly frozen river bank to river’s edge. Upon setting up my tripod behind several rocks, I waited for any wildlife that might amble by my position. The crisp, cold morning air, the light spring snow cover, and the calm, no wind quiet of this remote place made me appreciate the scene in front of my lens.
