"Mountain Standard Time"

The summer is about to come to a close, and I'm sad to see it go.  This has been one of the funnest summers I've had in a while.  Usually summer is about working and trying to get projects done before the winter sets in.  This summer I wanted to enjoy it and made an effort to get outside as much as possible. Most of the time this meant going out in the evenings, but that pays off, as the sunsets and evening light are incredible.

"Tetons Sunset"

We are obsessed with these panoramic photos on canvas.  It's like creating a new window in your room.  This is one of my images of the Grand Tetons in Wyoming, with the Moulton barn in the foreground.  It was such a beautiful winter evening, with the mountains picking up the pink glow of the sunset.  We are posting several of these large panoramics on our website, so take a peek here to see a more.  Cheers!   

"Meadow at Square Butte"

I love the tall grasses that grow in the meadows in the summers.  Ulm, Montana is just a tiny town, but near it is the very interesting natural formation called Square Butte.  There are actually 11 buttes in Montana with the same name, but this one and the one near Choteau, Montana are the two better known ones.  Near this butte, huge open meadows surround the occasional butte and rolling hills.  This meadow is bisected by Muddy Creek, which allows for tall wild grass to grow, even when the hot weather dries up everything else in the late summer.

"Far Reaching"

I already miss the summer. 

The huge rolling clouds are my favorite part of summer in Montana.  In the winter, there are no defined clouds like these.  Mostly, the entire sky is gray in the winter.  Boring.  It's the definition in the clouds that makes them beautiful.
