Below are a few more photos from my last months trip to Montana and Wyoming. Looking forward to heading back out to Jackson Hole the week of Thanksgiving.

I'm also planning on doing a few wildlife/nature photography workshops out in Grand Teton NP and Yellowstone NP next year. Dates can be found on the last photo, and more info on my website. If anyone knows someone who may be interested please have them reach out.

Incredible, as always. That's for sharing.

What’s your camera setup?

Would you be willing to post a side by side photo of a particular shot straight off the camera and then the edited version? That would be an interesting comparison to me. You do incredible work.

I have two cameras, Nikon Z-8 and the Nikon Z-7ii
The Z-8 is my go to wildlife camera, and I usually use the Nikkor 180-600 or 70-120 with it. I'll sometimes shoot landscapes with this set up (especially mountain peaks, or something that I want a tight shot of). If I'm out and not excepting wildlife I may put a 24-70mm on and just focus on landscape.
The Z-7ii is my backup (I'll eventually get a second Z-8). The 24-70 pretty much stays on this body, and I'll use it for landscapes.

I don't have my external hard drive with me right now, and it has all my raw files on it. I'll be back home tomorrow, and will post a few side by side shots. I'll just post them in this thread.

Below are a couple of photos showing the difference between the raw file and the final edit.
I always shoot in RAW format rather than JPEG. Raw files give maximum flexibility in post-processing, as RAW files capture all the uncompressed data from the camera sensor, allowing for extensive adjustments to exposure, white balance, and color without losing quality. On the other hand JPEGs compress the data and limit editing options due to information lost during compression. Basically, RAW gives more control over the image with greater detail recovery in shadows and highlights,

Interesting stuff. Really.

Thanks for posting that. Photoshop is kind of intimidating to me but I am going to have to take the time to sit down and work my way through it one day. Have been using Lightroom a little and it is fairly easy to learn.
On a side note it amazes me the sensitivity of the image sensors in cameras today. I was down by my pond a few nights ago around 11:00 pm with no moon light but looking through a thermal scope checking for beavers. There was a blue heron sitting on a structure out in my pond that I could only see through the thermal. I went back to my house and got my camera and a tripod and took a long exposure shot of the bird and the picture came out like it was in daylight. I couldn’t even tell where the bird was when trying to frame the shot just had to guess different angles until I got him in the frame.

All I use is lightroom, it does enough to where I don't need to use photoshop.
Photoshop is a beast though, I can do a few things in it, but would really need to sit down for a while to really learn all its capabilities (at least as far as photography is concerned).

The sensors today are really good. I have a photo of a bull moose that was taken well after the sunset, barely any light left. I had my ISO cranked to somewhere between 10,000 and 20,000, and was worried that there would be too much noise in the photo. After editing there was no noise, and the photo is sharp except for a soft area on the moose's fur where it was just too dark to pick up any detail.

Bruh if you would make a book with those high res images, I'd pay $300 for that thing.

I’ve actually been considering doing that

Great looking stuff! Not being a dick, but I have always thought I took Shitty pics. It turns out I just don’t know how to edit

Glad to see you’re that high on the Z8. It’s what I think I’m upgrading to from the Z6II

I think you’ll really like the Z8.
I’m not a “pixel peeper”, but I think you’ll see a huge difference between the 24mp and 45mp, especially when it comes to cropping in and in low light situations

Thanks for sharing your amazing pictures. Having visited the Tetons several times, that place is amazing during all 4 seasons.
Edit: JoJo, I’m guessing you grew up in South Louisiana and currently reside in Montana ?

I’m still in South Louisiana (northshore area). I travel up to the Tetons/Yellowstone area as much as possible.
If the cost of living in Jackson Hole didn’t cost a fortune I’d move out there
