winter morning in the grand tetons
There was a bit of dread in my mid-south self about rolling out of bed on this mid-January day into the 10-degree cold. We were going to try for some sunrise shots of the Tetons and a guide would meet us at our bed and breakfast at 7:15. Expecting the worst, I went armed with […]
