Yellowstone Photography Is A Joy To Take

By Doris Rivas


If you happen to be a camera buff there is practically no place else on earth to get prints than Yellowstone national Park. Yellowstone photography gives the photographer a multitude of sights to capture on film. This national park affords the tourist a panoramic view of any number of different areas.

It is not often that wildlife can be frozen in its natural habitat, but in this park it is a common occurrence. Old Faithful will fill the lens as it spews its water skyward. Moose, bison, elk, and sheep can be spotted grazing unaware they are being captured within your lens. A glistening waterfall that meets the sky is breathtaking.

The summer season of July and August seem to attract the most visitors. If you wish to stay inside the park make your reservations early or you may have to find lodging off the grounds and commute during the day. Wildlife is plentiful and and a daylight hike will bring you to many glens that are awash with summer blooms.

There are those that enjoy picture taking away from the peak visitor season. In that case, a fall visit may fit the bill. The weather can change abruptly from cool to cold so you are taking your chances, but there is a myriad of gorgeous sights to behold in the park. Fall sees the glorious color changes of the trees and animals will display their rack of antlers such as the moose and elk.

The extreme cold of winter adds its crystalline touch to every surface. You can obtain entrance to the grounds using a snow machine. The whole of the park will seem as if it has become a crystal palace. Combine this extreme cold with the warmth of steam vents and the heat of the geysers and you will see the animals lingering to partake of the warmth generated there.

As for the spring season, visiting during that time period can be iffy. There is no guarantee when the warmer weather will arrive and the park is only opened when the roads are easily passable. If you wish admittance during spring, it can be arranged and there are many nice places that allow for photo taking, but it is not the best of times.

The different times of day will have an effect on the kind of photos you want to take. Late morning as the sun begins its ascent into the sky offers some colorful shots. Artist Point and Inspiration Point most likely had the camera in mind at this part of the day. Mid day will see a lens pointed in the direction of geyser basins and late day welcomes the animals as they graze about Madison.

The length of your stay can never be too long if you are hoping to get some of the best shots that Yellowstone photography has to offer. When the areas you visit are open to tourists there are no restriction on the photos that you take. Begin your visit with a tour to see where the best places are for picture taking. Any shots that you take cannot be used in advertising but can be used in postcards or blown up in various print sizes.
