Teft Photography - Keyword Reults: "landscape"

Reflected Arcs

This photograph was taken at Zabriskie Point in Death Valley. This is definitely one of the major attractions in the park. It is absolutely stunning to witness. The colors of the terrain change and shift hue throughout the day.

Gold Foil

Zabriskie point has many areas to focus on. It reveals thousands of years of erosion from the rain.

Sun On The Centipede

Strange creatures begin to appear from the rock formations in Death Valley. Zabriskie Point has particularly interesting creatures. The black crowned rock in the lower half of the picture resembles a giant centipede marching through the desert.

My Point Is ...

The landscapes are stunning, not only for the rock formations, but also for the distance that you can see.

Hiking The Calico Ridge

Hiking in a place like Death Valley is a big attraction. But, you must bring plenty of water because of the arid atmosphere. This shot captured to hikers at Zabriskie Point.

Rock Lightning

Aside from fairy tale creatures, the rock formations present many alternative forms. This paticular shot emphasizes the lightning shape.

The Big Picture

Black and white really brings out the work that the rain has achieved through millions of years.

Mexican Lace

Layers of sediment are revealed in the rocks erosion patterns. Often, man made patterns are mirrored in the rock layers.

Color Wheel

Slightly different angles of Zabriskie Point can create drastically different compositions.

Grandma's Quilt

This shot stretches across Death Valley's floor towards the northern half of the park. Compressing the distance with a super telephoto lens reveals a tapestry of colors and patterns with the help of the heat.

Empty Valley

Again, miles can be seen across the Death Valley floor!

Cloud Geyser

When Death Valley is relatively cool, interesting clouds can assemble. Often, though, clouds are absent because of the heat.

Lone Tracks

A lot people take their 4x4 vehicles off the road for some adventure. The tracks leave great photo subjects!

Zues Resting

Tons of interesting rocks! Everywhere in Death Valley.

Under The Eyes of the Mountain

It can be hours before you see another car on the road! The drive is outlined with geo-goodies.

Sun Fire In The Canyon

Sunsets in Death Valley light up with fire! The rocks become blazed with gold.

Dune Gazers

Death Valley has many sand dunes ... these dunes are by Stove Pipe Wells.

Sand Ribbons

The wind creates beautiful sand ribbons ... It makes you want to eat the dune up!

The Road Less Taken

Because of the huge depth of the valley, these sand dune shots are composed of multiple landscapes. The road in the background of this shot is a prime example.

Soft Serve

Mmmmm, soft serve sand cream :)

1 Scoop (Please)

The sand dunes by Stove Pipe Wells just make you think of ice cream and yogurt!

Banana Split

This one could use some topping from Zabriskie Point.

Guardians

Certain areas of Death Valley has rocks that make you feel like your being watched. Ancient spirits.

Wisdom of the Rock

Rock wisdom is straight to the point and very clear. No over-thinking allowed.

Enchanted Path

This photo was exposed in one of the Redwood groves in the Avenue of the Giants area. It's like a fairy tale landscape!

In The Garden

Light peaks in and out of the forest through out the day.

A Fern Hammock

The paths in the groves of Avenue of the Giants carve the sorrel and ferns. It almost feels like a hammock you could sleep in ... watch out for banana slugs!

The Guardian

You can feel the spirit of the trees, long after they've fallen.

Finding Yourself

There's many paths in the forest ... easy to get lost.

Deep Ferns

The ferns blend in with the sorrel in perfect patterns.

Joy of the Path 02

Bryce Canyon is also amazing, in fact Utah National Parks are just plain stunning! Hiking through Bryce feels like nothing else, mainly because Bryce Canyon is so unique ... you feel like your on another planet, a very quiet planet :)

Joy of the Path 03

A very popular hike in Bryce Canyon is the Navajo Loop trail. It's relatively short and can connect to other trails for more of a day hike. We started out at Bryce point and connected Peekaboo Loop trail into the Navajo Loop trail. This shot is of the canyon in the beginning of the Navajo Loop trail.

While we were going through Moab, Utah to visit Canyonlands and Arches, a big storm was going through! It made for some amazing photos at sunset.

Joy of the Path 08

When visiting Zion, make sure to drive through the East side of the park. You have to pass through a huge man made tunnel and on the other side is a geological explosion of color and swirls. It's absolutely amazing. Best to visit in the early morning so you can stop, stare, and grab some photos ;) YouTube Video Link
