Who is the wackjob that decided it would be a good idea to stand in the path of a half mauled bison and a brown bear to take a picture?

Looks like it was a park employee....

Yellowstone National Park West District Ranger Michael Keator tells KTVQ channel 2 in Billings, Montana that the photo, which recently began circulating on the web, was taken by a park employee in April 2010, between the Madison Junction and Old Faithful, in the Fountain Flats area of Yellowstone National Park.

One does not simply walk into Iceland.

Which is why you should drive.

Hey Blitz. That is a very disturbing avatar.

This is blatantly blowing my own trumpet but it's the first pumpkin I've ever carved and it's not bad even if I do say so myself.

Awesome video.

Tilt Shift is one of the coolest effects I have ever seen in photography. Looks even better in a video.

I actually drove on that road shortly after they tore down the bridge. Pretty cool to watch it being done.

Better than a tilt-shift video is people's reactions when they realize it's real.

Nice vid!, though I admit i had to google "tilt shift" to figure out what you guys mean.

 

[Jedi2016]

I've looked it up a few times now, and I still can't quite wrap my head around how it works. I mean, I know how depth of field works, it's how they're getting such a shallow depth of field from a long-distance shot that gets me. Some kind of special lens setup, if I recall?

Has anyone else noticed how much that looks like a model?

That's the whole point of "tilt shift," you know, the thing that's just being discussed...

I dunno, maybe.

So Neal isn't the only one

. Certainly not amazing, but I think it came out pretty cool. That and I'm a nerd...

Also my first time jack-o-lantering.

I also did a triceratops for my other son but it's already outside so I'll have to take a picture later when it's all fired up.

Nice job, TB!
