Grand Teton National Park is a United States National Park in northwestern Wyoming. At approximately 310,000 acres (480 sq mi; 130,000 ha; 1,300 km2), the park includes the major peaks of the 40-mile-long (64 km) Teton Range as well as most of the northern sections of the valley known as Jackson Hole. It is only 10 miles (16 km) south of Yellowstone National Park, to which it is connected by the National Park Service-managed John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Memorial Parkway. Along with surrounding National Forests, these three protected areas constitute the almost 18,000,000-acre (7,300,000 ha) Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, one of the largest intact mid-latitude temperate ecosystems in the world. Human history of the Grand Teton region dates back at least 11,000 years, when the first nomadic hunter-gatherer Paleo-Indians began migrating into the region during warmer months pursuing food and supplies. In the early 19th century, the first White explorers encountered the eastern Shoshone natives. Between 1810 and 1840, the region attracted fur trading companies that vied for control of the lucrative beaver pelt trade. U.S. Government expeditions to the region commenced in the mid-19th century as an offshoot of exploration in Yellowstone, with the first permanent white settlers in Jackson Hole arriving in the 1880s. Efforts to preserve the region as a national park commenced in the late 19th century, and in 1929 Grand Teton National Park was established, protecting the major peaks of the Teton Range. The valley of Jackson Hole remained in private ownership until the 1930s, when conservationists led by John D. Rockefeller, Jr. began purchasing land in Jackson Hole to be added to the existing national park. Against public opinion and with repeated Congressional efforts to repeal the measures, much of Jackson Hole was set aside for protection as Jackson Hole National Monument in 1943. The monument was abolished in 1950 and most of the monument land was added to Grand Teton National Park. Grand Teton National Park is named for Grand Teton, the tallest mountain in the Teton Range. The naming of the mountains is attributed to early 19th-century French-speaking trappers—les trois tétons (the three teats) was later anglicized and shortened to Tetons. At 13,775 feet (4,199 m), Grand Teton abruptly rises more than 7,000 feet (2,100 m) above Jackson Hole, almost 850 feet (260 m) higher than Mount Owen, the second-highest summit in the range. The park has numerous lakes, including 15-mile-long (24 km) Jackson Lake as well as streams of varying length and the upper main stem of the Snake River. Though in a state of recession, a dozen small glaciers persist at the higher elevations near the highest peaks in the range. Some of the rocks in the park are the oldest found in any U.S. National Park and have been dated at nearly 2.7 billion years. Grand Teton National Park is an almost pristine ecosystem and the same species of flora and fauna that have existed since prehistoric times can still be found there. More than 1,000 species of vascular plants, dozens of species of mammals, 300 species of birds, more than a dozen fish species and a few species of reptiles and amphibians exist. Due to various changes in the ecosystem, some of them human-induced, efforts have been made to provide enhanced protection to some species of native fish and the increasingly threatened whitebark pine. Grand Teton National Park is a popular destination for mountaineering, hiking, fishing and other forms of recreation. There are more than 1,000 drive-in campsites and over 200 miles (320 km) of hiking trails that provide access to backcountry camping areas. Noted for world-renowned trout fishing, the park is one of the few places to catch Snake River fine-spotted cutthroat trout. Grand Teton has several National Park Service-run visitor centers, and privately operated concessions for motels, lodges, gas stations and marinas.

The Power of Goodbye - Madonna
Your heart is not open, so I must go
The spell has been broken...I loved you so
Freedom comes when you learn to let go
Creation comes when you learn to say no
You were my lesson I had to learn
I was your fortress you had to burn
Pain is a warning that something's wrong
I pray to God that it won't be long
Do ya wanna go higher?
Chorus:
There's nothing left to try
There's no place left to hide
There's no greater power than the power of good-bye
Your heart is not open, so I must go
The spell has been broken...I loved you so
You were my lesson I had to learn
I was your fortress
Chorus:
There's nothing left to lose
There's no more heart to bruise
There's no greater power than the power of good-bye
Bridge:
Learn to say good-bye
I yearn to say good-bye
Chorus:
There's nothing left to try
There's no more places to hide
There's no greater power than the power of good-bye
There's nothing left to lose
There's no more heart to bruise
There's no greater power than the power of good-bye
This is an excerpt from my blog. Click on this link for the complete story.
Earlier this year I was on assignment for National Geographic Traveler in India to shoot for an article on tiger safaris. I was there for a week and visited both Bandhavgarh and Ranthambore, their most famous tiger parks. It turned out to be a very frustrating experience - only on our very last game drive did we see a tiger. One tiger. After sunset. On the road. Hardly the ideal conditions for a good picture.
Tigers are indigenous to Asia and there are many companies that offer photo tours to India, where they visit the same two parks which are supposed to be the best. But chances of you actually seeing a tiger are small, and seeing one in good photography conditions are even smaller. Unfortunately, chances of seeing a tiger in the wild are diminishing further every year, as tiger conservation on the Asian continent does not seem to be very successful. Numbers are decreasing rapidly and necessary measures, like properly fencing and protecting the national parks, are not taken.
This has always been the main reason we have never organized a tiger photography tour before - you simply can't promise good tiger sightings in those parks if you only have limited time. Another reason is that the famous tiger parks are heavily overcrowded with tourists and vehicles, and that you have to be extremely lucky to be in a good position for photography when you arrive at a sighting. Been there, done that.
But even though my first tiger encounter was short and far from ideal, I was impressed with this incredibly pretty cat and I was determined to get better images.
In 2000 a revolutionary tiger conservation plan was made in South Africa - huge stretches of farmland in South Africa were bought and a new game reserve was created - one where tigers could roam in the wild, hunting on their own, living free while protected by a huge fence; to keep the tigers in and the poachers out.
In the beginning the project was criticized by conservationists and narrow-minded nature fundamentalists who questioned the value of the project, but soon the first litters were born and in December 2010 there were already 16 tigers in the sanctuary, and it is currently the most successful tiger conservation project in the world when it comes to rapidly increasing numbers of tigers.
When you're serious about preventing a species from going extinct, you have to think out of the box.
Not so long ago government officials admitted that all the tigers had disappeared from Panna, one of India’s leading reserves, when just 2 years ago there was still a healthy population of 24. Even more recent the major tiger parks were temporarily closed for tourism in an effort to blame the tourists instead of poachers, organized crime and corrupt park officials. As long as there's an ever increasing demand for tiger parts from China and Vietnam, the tiger will continue to be poached - it's as simple as that. More tigers means better chances that they will survive.
We visited the South African tiger sanctuary earlier this year, spent a few days with the tigers, and we were very impressed. The tiger sanctuary is huge, the tigers have loads of space, they can hunt for themselves, and they are well protected from the outside world by a state of the art fence. We had so many good photo opportunities with the tigers, that we were instantly convinced that this is the place to go if you want good tiger photographs. So we decided to organize a tour to this remarkable place:
Tigers & Leopards, a Squiver Photo Tour

Most of us have someone that we can look back and credit with helping us out along the way somehow. This is the guy who, 3 years ago this month, encouraged me to buy a camera and took me out shooting when I had no clue what the letters "DSLR" even stood for. As this photo suggests, he's a pretty low key, throwback kinda dude who wouldn't make a big deal out of what he did, but I've got mad respect for the voo. Thanks for everything, man.

La verità è che la verità cambia.
[Friedrich Nietzsche]
La verità nessuno la possiede, ma guardando il mondo attorno a noi in modo diverso possiamo abbattere i confini visivi, creando nuovi accostamenti di forme, colori e materiali. Possiamo restituire alle forme la loro originale essenza, lasciando a chi osserva la possibilità di trarne lo stimolo per andare oltre, di ritrovare la libertà per arrivare alla strada delle (molteplici) verità.
Questa è la sfida del fotografare l'astratto. Scoprire che l'essere non è fisso e immutabile, ma può anche essere altro, qualcosa di molto diverso da sé, semplicemente cambiando il punto di vista. Gli oggetti fotografati assumono nuova forma, diventano pura forma, puro colore. L'occhio si spinge quasi dentro la struttura molecolare delle cose per ammirarne la bellezza, fatta di linee e sensazioni cromatiche.
Con Verità Astratte vi abbiamo proposto diversi percorsi per accompagnarvi in un nuovo mondo in cui conta solo la bellezza della forma, in cui il significante domina sul significato, in cui ammirare ciò che è, ciò che non è e ciò che potrebbe essere.

Penso che sono nata con l'amore per il mare dentro.Quando avevo tre anni, un bel giorno ventoso d'estate, mentre viaggiavo in macchina con la mia famiglia verso il mare, vidi da lontano un campo di grano e inizi a pregare a mio padre di fermare la macchina perchè vedendo il movimento dei grani causato dal vento, volevo correre tra i grani pensando che fosse il mare,

I'm born with the love for the sea I guess..This pic reminds me of the times that I used to miss the sea and get confused with the wheat fields thinking that it was the sea...One windy summer day, around my three years old, we were travelling in the car through the wheat fields. As I'd seen the movement of the wheat fields from a distance, I've made my father stop the car and wanted to run thriugh them thinking it was the sea...
