"Yellowstone" at Westover Library, Arlington, Virginia, August 15 - September 30, 2017

Curated by Greg Embree, this was DJ Choupin's first curated show, which transferred to the Westover Library after 3 months on exhibit at the Cherrydale Library. The website cherrydalelibrary.org said "Cherrydale Library's current photo exhibit includes some spectacular wintertime photographs of sections of Yellowstone National Park accessible only by snowmobile." Mr. Embree also made art-quality prints of the included photos, which he matted and framed. His captions for this curated show add interest and context to the photos.

Ski Trail Near Old Faithful Snow Lodge

During the snowy colder months, all roads leading to the Old Faithful Snow Lodge, which was completed in 1999, are covered by the fluffy white of winter, making the hotel accessible only by commercially operated over-snow vehicles, such as snowmobiles and snow coaches. Because the lodge and cabins are so isolated, it's a rare chance to explore Yellowstone in a way few ever do.
---Greg Embree, curator

"This was taken on the ski trail on our way from the Old Faithful Snow Lodge towards Lone Star Geyser. By far, it's my favorite place to go cross-country skiing. You can get a snow coach to you off at the trailhead, or you can ski to it yourself, and get rewarded with this view!"
---DJ Choupin

The Yellowstone Park bison herd is believed to be one of only four free roaming and genetically pure herds on public lands in North America. The other three herds are the Henry Mountains bison herd of Utah, at Wind Cave National Park in South Dakota, and in Elk Island National Park in Alberta.<br />

"Looking at a buffalo nickel or a picture of a bison, or even looking at them in person, they can appear quite tame, since they don't (usually) move that fast in winter. Don't be fooled. They are conserving their energy. This one seemed to have plenty of energy in his gaze!"<br />
