I will be showing some fine art prints at the new Gallery des Refuses, 120 E. Park Street. The show has a meet and greet 5 – 8:30, Friday, June 28, 2013. Check out the new venue during the Livingston Art Walk.
The show will also feature the talents of Livingston painters, sculptors, and woodworking artists.
I recently got a nice post on the photographersofplanetearth.com website. This new photo blog website features a collection of fine photographers who choose one of their favorite photos, then compliment the photo with a brief interview. Check out the photo and interview.
The clouds are big in the Big Sky Country. I often find a range of Altocumulus clouds and most of the time these things look like spaceships, or volcano steam. I zoom around the dirt roads to line up the ground and sky. The “big clouds” are a delight to photograph while they continuously evolve and morph into pleasing shapes.
The aesthetic curves of water cutting through the landscape are always an interesting subject. Water is constantly changing the Montana landscape. Each year the high water cuts out new paths, rearranging trees, rocks, and nature in general. I look forward to visiting these scenes each year. Below is a shot I will visit many times a year. I hiked up the side of a hill to get this shot. The high angle really emphasizes the line of the creek.
This shot was taken during a very cold morning in Mammoth Hot Springs, located in Yellowstone National Park. There’s a nice path along the upper terrace. The steam produces some very strong contrast, considering the sky is perfect blue and the ground has a thick pillow of fresh snow. This location during a winter sunrise is very inspiring.
