I just came home from a really fast trip to Jackson Hole, Wyoming, to enjoy the wedding of one of my dearest friends and college roommates. I was really torn about whether or not to pack my camera, because, after all, I was going to Jackson Hole, Wyoming, and the wedding was held in the national park. I mean, seriously, what idiot would not take her camera?
Me, that’s what idiot. I flew up on Wednesday and left bright and early Friday morning, so was in Jackson for maybe 36 hours? Somehow the weight of the camera just outweighed the desire to carry it on five different flights. Actually, I’m glad I didn’t take it, as I got to really just sit and enjoy being a part of the celebration. I did pack our faithful old Sony point-n-shoot, with its whopping 4.1 megapixels, and still managed to come home with pictures I could enjoy.
Can you imagine getting married with this as your backdrop?
OK, I wish I had my real camera here, because this shot would probably have been in focus, but I loved the look on Phoebe’s face here (that’s her new hubby she’s looking back at as they recess). She was just radiant the whole day.
We took the “inner” road back to Jackson after the wedding and enjoyed stopping to take some pictures along the way. This scenery was really incredible.
I just liked this tree branch and wanted to play with the black & white. I don’t normally get to crank the contrast like this.
Next time I go to Wyoming, I’m taking my camera. And I’m going to stay for longer than one day.
