John & Bartha Moulton Homestead

Uploaded: June 18, 2010

Description

Another of the Mormon Row eminent domain homesteads which forms the Grand Teton NP. The Homesteads were promised under the Homestead Act of 1862 which provided 160 acres to any person willing to build a house and cultivate the land for five years. This act is what drew settlers to the Jackson Hole area. Mormon Row was known as the town of Grovont, WY and was settled in the 1890's. The town was dispersed in the mid-1900's as the land was reacquired to form the Grand Teton NP.

Exif: F Number: 12.9, ISO: 100, FocalLength: 24.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 7D

My apologies, I forgot, I had a polarizer on the lens, my comments were related to post-processing. However, HDR is a post-processing done by combining three identical images with different exposure settings. #8709092
