Today I took another photography bike ride. This time I traveled south of Mountain View, WY. I was rewarded with some great shots. This one is my favorite.
I have many photos of horses uploaded and more to come. I uploaded more of this white stallion, some painted horses, and some vistas. I still have to upload my photos of the colts.
I have been wanting to take a Sunday morning bike ride since I arrived but it has been rainy every weekend up until now. Today was a gorgeous day for a bike ride. So I set out this morning on my bike with my cameras ready to go; or so I thought.
I road from Mountain View, WY to Lyman, WY to take photos of lambs and horses. They were all pretty far away even for my 300mm lens but I took some photos anyway. After left that area I realised I had the camera set on the macro setting. Only one horse shot turned out. I'll have to try again next weekend; and next weekend I will pay attention to my auto settings!
From Lyman, WY I road to Fort Bridger, WY. I went down the plateau; there is a couple hundred foot drop. I was cruising down the hill enjoying the wind and thinking about the trip back up. I was just going to stay a little while in Fort Bridger but then I decided I would visit the Fort Bridger State Historical Site. The admission is only $2 for a resident or $4 for a non-resident. The site features historical buildings, a museum, and re-enactors. At the museum I watched a 15 minute historical video then I walked around. They were kind enough to let me ride my bike on the trails as long as I stayed out of the way of walkers. I was there early enough where I didn't have any problems with crowds of any kind.
While I was there, I realised my batteries were nearly dead. So I conserved my batteries and didn't take too many photos. I decided I have to go back again; maybe next weekend since its a long holiday with nothing else to do!
The lady at the gate suggested I take a different route home; this route had less steep of a grade for me to climb with my bike but it had a gravel road. The gravel road wasn't bad at all though. The trip took me about 4 hours in total and I wasn't hurting afterwards. The bike trails and roads are quite easy to ride if you don't let the steep inclines get to you.
Based on our long thread about the heads and since ChristieCottage put my heads in a treasury I decided to hold them Ransom! I posted a comment on the treasury that if I didn't recieve $4.50 by the time the treasury expired the heads were gonna get it... and then I linked to this photo.
