Dark Sky at Mormon Row

My previous attempt at doing night photography at the Moulton Barns along Mormon Row in Grand Teton National Park was cut short by a herd of Buffalo in the area. I could hear them all around me but could not see them. Not wanting to be trampled by ghost buffalo coming out of the darkness I cut my losses and left.

 

The other night it was a different story. It was a beautiful moonless night and no snorting! This is a 30 sec., ISO 6400 image of the south Moulton Barn. I did some light painting of the barn by pointing the flashlight at my shirt and moving back and forth to spread out the light a bit. This resulted in much more even light painting than when I shinned the flashlight directly at the barn.

 

The sky glow above the barn is from Driggs, Idaho on the west side of the Tetons.
