A few process shots of "Teton Sunrise" |
On our last day, we woke up early to check out the sunrise over Jenny Lake. It was spectacular as seen in Kyle's Photo. I combined that memory of those sweet, sunrise colors with the view of the Tetons from Cascade Canyon where we camped with the Youghiogheny head glass which I wanted to incorporate into a special project. What I got is this landscape "Teton Sunrise". It captures various experiences into one image. So much is reborn into something new, something of my own. Yet it is an homage to what so many can relate to, whether they have stood where I stood and looked at these very mountains or whether they simply dreamed it because it lived inside of them or because they needed this place to inspire them. This landscape is real yet imaginary - you decide.
