📸 Landscape Photography Tip: Wait...and then wait some more. With landscape photography, the weather is constantly changing and shifting. Patience is key in capturing dramatic scenes and lighting. I have often come across a cloudy scene (or the opposite, one with harsh lighting). Waiting even just a few minutes can make all the difference in allowing the clouds to part for the sun to shine through and illuminate the distant scene. When did patience pay off for you?

Nevada Falls, in Yosemite National Park, is definitely a hike to get to, but the views and majesty of this waterfall are worth it. I love this vantage point of this magnificent waterfall.

“399 • Fiercely Fragile”
May 2021
Home

"With the triumph and tragedy of grizzlies in the GYE lately, it has me reminiscing when a family of five bears could stay together and safe for 2 1/2 years.
My, she knew what she was doing. Look at the four cubs. They are in the lanky and scraggly stage of grizzly bear life.
Those two and half years watching the five of them together were some of the greatest joys I’ve had in the wild. I have thousands of miles on my car to prove it.
New life, new bears, and new chapters are all playing out in the GYE now and it is something to see. We’ve seen tragedy and triumph in just the past few days. It is always a gentle nudge and reminder that they may be fierce creatures but their lives are oh so fragile."

There is a deep beauty found in Yosemite National Park. I love how switching the images to black and white allows you to feel the play between shadow and light. Yosemite is one of my favorite places on Earth.

✨ Featured National Park Photographer Spotlight

✨ Featured National Park Photographer Spotlight ✨ Meet Lee Cowen! @leecowenpics

I’m Lee Cowen - consultant by day and photographer by night (or maybe the other way around!). Photography started for me around 15 years ago when I graduated from taking “snapshots” and bought my first DSLR. The original intention of the “Big Camera” was to take better pictures of my kids, but I quickly realized that I preferred photographing things that didn’t fidget and didn’t talk back!! (JK!) Scenery, architecture, landscapes, wildlife, etc. really caught my eye and I started to study how best to capture the scene and edit them to my liking.

I’ve had no formal training, but I’ve had a few really good mentors along the way. I’m fortunate that my day job takes me all over the US, and that enables me to carve-out side trips to visit and shoot some very photogenic locations. And our National Parks provide some of the best locations for what I enjoy shooting. I’ve now visited 43 of 63 National Parks … and counting! The Parks really are amazing, so I always try to remember to take a minute, put down the camera(s), and enjoy the view!!

Here are some of my favorite National Park photographs:

I had such an amazing trip to Capitol Reef Nationa

I had such an amazing trip to Capitol Reef National Park! I took a tour of Cathedral Valley with @capitolreefphotographytours and was so glad I did. The river was high enough I wouldn’t have been comfortable navigating it by myself. Hunter was an amazing tour guide and showed us his favorite places! I love this vista of the Temple of the Sun, Moon, and Stars! Such a crazy sunset with shifting weather. We went from snow to full clouds to a moment when the Sun peeked out just as it was setting. What a beautiful National Park! Have you been? What was your favorite location?

Quoted from 📸 Featured National Park Photographer, @kellywasenmillerphotography What a beautiful tribute!

"June 2023 - Home of Grizzly 399 (and Spirit as a cub of the year)

Pilgrim Creek was where she chose to tell her story. As the rebirth of the earth emerged by way of spring flowers and the warmth of the higher sun, she would appear. It was clockwork. It was a reliability outside of our chaotic world. It brought peace and steadiness. Every few years she would traverse the same path of Pilgrim Creek with new life at her side. Her stoic pace showed her confidence and familiarity. She had introduced the next generation through a walk in these meadows many times. These tiny cubs always followed along with wonder, curiosity, and playfulness. All wrapped in a sweet package of innocence. The span of years between her and her cubs at her side was tangible proof of success. It had been well rehearsed, many times over. Facing the fears of the outside world with every new cub, she challenged them, face to face, every time. She knew what she was doing.

As spring falls upon the Tetons, I will deeply miss awaiting her arrival. In a few weeks, I will visit her where she rests. She now belongs to the gentle breeze we will all feel beneath those towering mountains.

Her appearance always brought hope and reassurance. It was a beautiful reminder of the inner compass we all have, humans and wildlife. It will always point you to your true north, even if there is fear."

When you walk into the middle of a freezing river

When you walk into the middle of a freezing river with fresh snow melt and the outside temps are in the 30s just to get your shot, only to realize that it’s not as good as you had hoped for and your legs were so numb you weren’t sure if you could make it back…yeah…that happened. 😅 Still…I had to try:) Can you relate?

📸 Landscape photography tip: Wait until late summer or early fall, when it’s warmer and the river levels are low, to capture in-river photographs. 🥶

I wonder…if I had kept walking would Half Dome have been centered? 🧐 I was too cold to find out.

Great Smoky Mountains National Park is a treasure

Great Smoky Mountains National Park is a treasure trove of beauty and diversity. Grotto Falls (first image) is no exception. This is an amazing waterfall you can actually walk behind! Parking is limited and on a one-way road, so it’s best to arrive early if you can. Have you been?
