I took a two week trip to Badlands and Yellowstone National Parks. I really didnt have any goals, other then to get some experience with as many different species as I could. I really enjoyed Badlands, much more then Yellowstone. There were aspects of Yellowstone I really enjoyed, but it just ended up being way to many people for me. On the other hand, Badlands had few people, and a higher concentration of wildlife

Here are a couple blog posts I made about the trip

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
