Those beautiful Sawtooth Mountains 
Published on
 

The weekend before last I went on an overnight camp trip to the Sawtooth Mountains to shoot some photographs.  My photography friend, Steve, and I showed up at Stanley Lake at around 7:30pm which was just in time to hike around and find a good spot to take some pictures.

Later than night we experimented with some long exposures by the lake.  I got exactly one keeper.  It was this one.  The moon was bright and this was about a 15 minutes exposure just showing the stars streaking across the sky.

We then got up just before 5am and headed out to a location to watch the sunrise.  I got this one with the morning light just near Stanley.

Before heading back to town we spent some time in the meadows capturing some of the flowers.  This time of year can be amazing.  It wasn't as good as I've seen it in the past but you can see the potential in these next two shots.

Here's the other flower shot.

Of course I have lots more photos.  I took about 150 and Steve took about 600.  These were just a few of my favorites.

I expect that Steve will have his pictures up on his website soon.  I'm sure he got some great ones.

You ought to see about selling these photos for jigsaw puzzles. There are a lot of elderly people who work jigsaws and I know that it would be enjoyed. By the way, I am not an elderly person writing this. I am 39 and pushing 40 fast and hard. Billie
