Tetons in Fall

 

Having finally reached the Grand Tetons, the experience of viewing the Tetons is outstanding in and of itself.  However, the first day, the weather was erratic and uncooperative.  On a subsequent visit a few days later, the ranger service decided to perform a controlled burn up wind which basically wiped out all visibility in the valley.  Sometimes you just need a little luck.  

I tried to salvage at least one OK image by concentrating on the color in the foreground.  I was not able to capture any acceptable images of the peaks themselves due to visibility problems.  If the lack of visibility had been caused by storm conditions, I could have had some fun but the lack of visibility was caused by a smog like  haze engulfing the entire valley in front of the Tetons.
