I hope you know I was kidding Regis. Excellent photo as always. A funny story: Our church pastor does our baptisms in the Yellowstone River. As we approached the river there was a beautiful bald eagle perched in a tall Cottonwood tree near the 'baptismal eddy'. Soon enough we all forgot about the eagle and concentrated on the baptism. I walked toward the embankment under the tree...big mistake. I heard the eagle's departure then...I was showered in eagle doo-doo.

It was too windy to fly fish so I walked the river (Madison) a while and found a bird I've never seen before, Tundra Swan, a lone juvenile. One of the first 5 images with my new 200-500!

I live in Paradise Valley, between Yellowstone NP and Livingston MT. These mountains are part of the west front of the Beartooth Absaroka Wilderness Area. We've always called our home a 70's fixer upper with a million dollar view.

This is an older photo taken from my back yard. I am a skier so this picture gets hastens the time leading up to ski season. My screen saver.

Wow, you can't imagine how much I appreciate your sharing this picture and history of the mountain. I am eager to pass this along to my travel buddy. We were quite intrigued as to the story of how this 'slide' came to be, as the absence of rubble or any mound at the bottom convinced me that it wasn't a landslide. But whatever it was, it made for a unique image, IMO. Thanks, guardineer!
You are welcome. I lived 6 miles left and up a canyon for ten years. Lucky to have Yellowstone, grizzly and black bear, elk, moose, wolves and mountain for neighbors. Here is my duplication of the Model A photo.

Here is a photo taken from nearly the same vantage point as your first photo, probably nearly 80 years ago. The background is Cinnabar Mountain and features the 'Devil's Slide', composed of 300 million year old sea bed settlement. Some Rocky Mountain geology went to work, nearly turning the area vertical. As you look at the new picture, tilt your head to the right to visualize the ions of change with the newer deposits being toward the top.

I'm not sure of your connotation of simple but here are a few less than stellar photos of our simple life.

I did add to the shadows in Lightroom but the sunset color is SOOC. Intense. D5500, Nikkor 18-300. 200-500 is in a brown truck!

I like the 'doo' but it needs a tattoo and a few rings to pop! Kidding, great capture.

I had posted a few days ago but it seems the posting didn't activate. These are outstanding effects on each photo. Very marketable. I hope you are able to find a medium that accentuates the beauty of your photos...good luck!

I would find the best medium for prints...all are very nice!

Very nice, it has all the makings of a great personal Christmas card.
