An amazing reflection on a summer morning at Grand Teton National Park north of Jackson, WY
On June 4th-6th, I spent a few days hiking and photographing Grand Teton National Park north of Jackson, WY. This by far was my favorite park I visited during my two-week vacation. It's peaceful, full of wildlife, and spectacular landscapes that a photographer seeks to find. I hope to one day return to this park once again as I would have loved to spend more time here. After a few days photographing and hiking at this park I once again roomed in Driggs, ID before heading into Utah to visit a couple more national parks. I've added photos of a few days of great photography below:

Crystal clear Jenny Lake is where you sure can find peace and tranquility!
This horse was quite photogenic with the mountains in the background!
"Cabin in the valley"
A thunderstorm forms over the mountains!
It was warm in the valley, but as you go up in elevation it was still cold enough to support snow-cover during this time of the year...
Gotta love the landscapes out west!
"Mountain at my gates"
A spectacular reflection at this pond!
More horses...
I really love this national park!
Another stunning landscape!
I was quite happy with the natural light on this morning!
This horse was quite friendly!

Another shot at Jenny Lake!
Beautiful weather in the valley, but quite a difference as you go up in elevation!
These horses were great to photograph with the Grand Tetons in the background!
Another barn at Mormon Row!
As a landscape photographer I could spend a month here and that still wouldn't be enough time for myself!
Another shot of one of the barns!
"Majestic"
Another wide-angle shot!
A close-up of one of the barns!
"Storm on the horizon"
"The Abandoned"
"Old-fashioned cabin and the mountains"
This national park is quite amazing and beautiful in so many ways. You can definitely find peace with Nature and within yourself at a place like this. After spending several days at this national park I began to head southwest into Utah to visit Arches National Park and I'll add a post from several days photographing that park soon as well.
