Yellowstone National Park - Buffalo

One of the many Buffalo that we experienced in Yellowstone Park.  The wind was blowing really hard when we stopped to take some photos of the buffalo - he was standing all alone in a ravine.  I found him to be very regal standing amongst the whispering blades of grass.

Carroll College Fighting Saints

My youngest brother Matthew Tummel (Aka. Matt or Mattie) plays football for the Carroll College Fighting Saints.  It is his senior year this year.  Him and his fellow teammates are currently in the playoffs fighting their way to the championship game.  They finished off their regular season 12-0.  I am very proud of Mattie and wanted to show a sampling of some of the photos I have from his games.

Also, Its his birthday tomorrow (12.2) - he's going to be 23!  Happy Birthday Mattie!!

An Ode to Thanksgiving

This is a photograph I took last Thanksgiving when I was at my parents house for the holiday.  The dried corn and neutral shades of browns and yellows remind me of Thanksgiving.

Mammoth Hotsprings - Yellowstone National Park

This picture was taken near the north entrance of Yellowstone National Park - Mammoth Hotsprings.  These are some of the hotspring terraces that the Mammoth has to offer.  I was drawn in by the subtle colors and the layering of the terrace that happens over time.

The hot water combines with limestone to create new land right before the visitors eyes.  The landscape of the hotsprings terraces changes daily.  The beautiful colors of pink, green, brown, yellow and orange are caused by bacteria and other organisms living on the rock.  Yellowstone National Park was the first national park of the United States.

New Beginnings - New Goals

To all of my followers and new followers to my blog I am challenging myself to post 5 new photographs a week. Whether they are photographs from the past that are in much need of being seen or new photographs that are screaming to be seen. The only rule is that I will never post the same photograph twice.

If you are interested in purchasing a photograph as a gift for someone or yourself please contact me. I am also available for commisioned photographs if you dont see exactly what your interested in.

So please enjoy and comment freely.
