Grand Tetons

Today is the last day of National Park Week 2024. I recently featured scenes at Big Bend NP, Glacier NP, and Yosemite NP. I chose a monochrome at Grand Teton NP to close the nine-day celebration.

Your light is more magnificent than sunrise or sunset.

We were headed to Oxbow Bend when we pulled off the road near Lower Willow Flats Overlook. The sky was ablaze, lighting up the Tetons. To my eyes, the photo begged for a monochrome edit.
