Great Salt Lake Gallery Blog
Brett Pelletier Photography - Great Salt Lake Gallery
This gallery is a photographic collection of images captured near the Great Salt Lake in Utah. It's been more then a few years, but I can still remember the conversation like it was this morning; one day talking with my parents they said "you've been living in Salt Lake City for a while and have never taken any photos of the Salt Lake" It never really occurred to me up to that point that there was anything out there to be photographed and who would want a photo of that anyway. Well, as usual the elders were on to something and this gallery is one of my top sellers as well as giving me a chance to find something out of nothing. I recently explored the Bonneville Salt Flats 
west of the Great Salt Lake and waited around until 9:30 pm (summer solstice) for sunset and was rewarded with spectacular colors that seemed to go on forever. These two images were captured after the sun had dropped behind the Silver Mountains and pastel pinks and purples spread across the sky and Bonneville Salt Flats. 
A few hours before the sun had set I managed to capture a very nice Panoramic of the Bonneville Salt Flats. The Great Salt Lake ends up being a great place to discover secret spots such as Sunset Ripples and Antelope Island and Old Train Car Doorway. Other gems from the forgotten past are Sunset on Forgotten Pier, Parallel Intersections and Abstract Balance. I make trips out to the area more often and during different times of the year such as Antelope Island Winter Sunset and realized that even out in this flat, desolate landscape there are obvious seasonal changes in both the landscape and lighting of this unique place.

Great Basin National Park Gallery
Brett Pelletier Photography - Great Basin National Park Gallery.
If you ever wa
nted to know what it feels like to trip around in a forest of trees that were seedlings more then a thousand years before the birth of Jesus Christ, then the Bristlecone Groves in Great Basin National Park, Nevada is the place you seek. I recently visited this very special place with a good friend and captured some fine images of these ridiculously old trees. In fact some of the older trees in the grove are over 3,000 years and still ali
ve!! Most of the trees are not tagged or identifiable for safety reasons and the interpretive trail that you take into the grove isn't much of anything, so it's much more enjoyable to get off the trail and scramble around on the glaciated boulders and explore the many fascinating trees. My friend and I searched three different groves and discovered scenes like Framed by Bristlecone and Bristlecone in Late Afternoon Light. The walking around was much easier then normal because there was still supportable patches of snow covering up the rocks, however some areas were free of snow and you could see that 
these trees grow in very harsh, rocky conditions such as this scene of Bristlecone base and Wheeler Peak. I also like to capture some of the details in images like Mossy Abstract and Twisted Bristlecone in black and white to help illustrate the big picture. I hope you enjoy my gallery and check back to see what's next.

Brett Pelletier Photography - White Mountains National Forest Gallery - This gallery is as important to me as the New Hampshire and Vermont Fall Foliage Gallery in that growing up in the area and now visiting family that lives there it elevates a special spirit in me to capture this amazing place for its unique beauty. There is only one image in my home, out of many as you can imagine, that I am not the artist. It isn't some fantastic image that I inspire to re-capture by a well known photographer, but simply a poster-shot taken from on top of Wildcat Mountain looking across at Mount Washington's western face and Tuckermans Ravine. Childhood memories cause me to pause and reflect. I didn't get the shot while I was home. I didn't really even get a chance. Visibility never co-operated with my plans and there was only one day it could of happened out of ten and I was on the opposite side of this gigantic mountain. So, I adjusted as you often have to being a vacationing photographer and took advantage of the rare clear day to shoot the Mount Washington Hotel and the Mount Washington Panoramic. I did however spend a lot of time out doors while I was home and tried to capture the real back woods feel in many of my shots like Trees and Trio Pond Camp and also the gems off the beaten path like Little Red Barn and Big Red Garage. Also in this gallery from a couple of winters ago I captured a favorite of mine at Cherry Pond and Old Railroad Post. In the end, wanting to go back and get that shot of Tuckermans I have as a poster on my wall, just gives me another reason to go 'home' and be with the family I love.
New Hampshire and Vermont Fall Foliage Blog
Brett Pelletier Photography - New Hampshire and Vermont Fall Foliage Gallery
Born and raised in a small town in Northern New Hampshire it was important for me to capture this area in all its beauty during the prime foliage season. New Hampshire and Vermont are known for having spectacular foliage and hopefully you feel as I do that my gallery displays this. The Whitney Farm in Shelburne, NH is my personal favorite on a crisp fall morning with blue sky, a small red farm, yellow aspens, and red maple in the foreground. A little sign beyond the Whitney Farm entrance reads, 'Hay - Hogs - Eggs' helping this capture be a classic. Another popular favorite is the Jenne Farm in Reading VT. This simple farm in the backwoods of Vermont is the most photographed barn in the New England area and may look familiar to you because it has been featured in commercials and movies such as Forrest Gump. The trip to the area where the Jenne Farm is located was a few hours drive from where I was staying meaning that I was only going to have one day to shoot, and of course the day I chose to visit was glo
omy and raining on and off. When I first arrived at the Jenne Farm you couldn't even see it because the fog was so thick and my spirits dropped. I was with my family and we decided to drive around some and come back in a little while. When we did the fog was still heavy in the air and visiblity was nill. Finally, on the third and final desperate attempt it looked like the fog had lifted somewhat and we returned to find the farm just visible benath the shroud above and within a few minitues the veil had lifted above the burning orange and red tree tops and the Jenne Farm nestled into the rolling green hills with a few cows grazing the pasture. Click, Click, Click. Other images of note from the area include the Flume in Franconia Notch, the Stark Covered Bridge and Village, and also a black and white image of Mountains and Valleys as seen from near the summit of Mount Madison.

Zion National Park Blog
Brett Pelletier Photography - Zion National Park GalleryZion National Park in Utah is certainly one of my favorite places to visit. Only about a 4 hour drive from Salt Lake City along the Utah I-15 corridor, the park makes for a great 'long-weekend' trip for me. Zion is like an adult play-ground for outdoor enthusiasts of all types. The red rock canyon offers spectacular beauty for hiking, cycling, mountain-biking, rock climbing, canyoneering, plus some of the most picturesque landscape photography opportunities around. The real beauty of the whole place is that the best of all these activities happen behind the scenes of all the crowds, and for much of the time you see nobody, but your friends and a few other enthusiasts like yourself. One of the reasons for this is because of the permit system that is in place at the park. This system benefits both people that live close and far because you can either secure a permit months in advance for a planned trip or you can show up the day before and secure a permit for the next day. There are a limited number of permits available for both, and it depends on what you want to do. Permits are needed for almost everything so be sure you check ahead to see if you need one or not. On my latest 'birthday vacation' in early October I was able to secure a permit the day before for the Subway and even got one for Pine Creek to do that very day. For more information check out this site. Photography in Zion National Park is special. The uniqueness of the desert fauna and colorful sandstone with the opportunity to capture all four seasons really makes this place stand out among the rest. I've manged to capture Zion in the Fall a couple times and have some beautiful images of a few canyons in the peak of foliage color. Two of these are the Subway and the Zion Narrows. Other images in my gallery include a not so common view from near the top of Lady Mountain looking at Angels Landing in the sunlight. See my gallery for even more photos of Zion National Park and thanks for checking out my blog.
Boston Gallery Blog
Brett Pelletier Photography - Boston Gallery
A quick visit to Boston over the summer produced some great images. A lot of research went into the night images ahead of time, locating areas to shoot and mapping out how to get there with Google Maps. My Dad was also super helpful with the being the chauffeur and getting me to the areas despite the crazy Boston driving. Actually it all seemed to go very smooth and I can thank the billions spent on the Big Dig for that. The highway is much easier to navigate then it ever was and traffic seems to move along pretty well.
My personal favorite is the Rowes Wharf Skyline shown above. It has such beautiful colors from all the lights and the reflection in the calm water really makes it pop. My 10-20mm lens was used for this wide angle shot to get as much of the city in the frame as possible. Other shots in this gallery include a 'Memorial to Fallen Soldiers', a slightly abstract black and white 'City Street View', and a typical view of 'Weathered Dwellings' in the city, plus a full 'Boston Skyline Panoramic' view that will be available for sale soon.
Mining Gallery Blog

Mining Gallery
This is one of my most unique galleries, that I plan on adding to this summer once the snow melts away in the mountains. Mining was a huge factor in much of the original exploration of the West, and is the reason most towns were established throughout the area. Though the miners didn't know it at the time they blazed the trails and roads in the mountains that are used today for recreation activities such as hiking, biking and skiing. Finding these abandoned mines is a bit tricky. Sometimes the mine is on private property and entering without permission is considered bad karma, sometimes the mine entrance is locked or gated closed, or filled with rocks and dirt, other times it may be too dangerous to enter safely. In return, discovering mines that are open and accessible becomes even more rewarding, and because everyone else either thinks your crazy or has no idea that the mines are there to explore you always have it for yourself. It's a little hard to blend in to the crowd at the trail-head with lamps, helmets, ropes, gloves, dirty pants and sweatshirts in the middle of summer so trying to be secretive about your intentions is impossible. Photographing the inside of mines is equally as difficult so if your not in it for a challenge then you better get out. Obviously there is zero natural light inside the mine so your camera won't focus, the light meter is useless, and if you just try your standard flash, the image won't have any depth and will be flat and boring, so setting up interesting lighting is very important. I like to use a variety of stationary lights in combination with a hand held light for 'painting the image' during the exposure. Each capture is at least 30 seconds of exposure with a wide angle lens. Click on the image above and view my gallery with large previews. Enjoy!!
Panoramic Gallery Blog
Panoramic Gallery - Brett Pelletier Photography
Here is my Panoramic Gallery and my first attempt at creating a blog about my photography. These images are some of my finest work available and display nature in a much more beautiful and effective way. Each image is in a 3 to 1 format where the horizontal distance is three times the vertical. This is a standard practice in panoramic photography and creates a feel that is 'natural for the eye'. The secret to my success with these images is trial and error plus practice, practice, and patience. I have come to learn over the years what works best as far as the lens focal length to use and are super happy with the captures I have for sale. Each of the panoramic images are made up of at least three and some up to 6 individual photos and then hand stitched together for a perfect fit. I don't use any kind of 'all in one' panoramic program to achieve this, I use Photoshop and calculate the focal length of my lens into a formula that helps flatten the images and reduce distortions for ease in stitching them together and then I simply overlap each image and feather them together with a little erasing of overlapped images. Sounds simple of course, but it takes a lot of practice to get everything to work just right and sometimes when you get home and get everything in front of you there is something that you've done wrong or you didn't think about and it's over. You can't work with what you have and there's nothing you can do about at home except learn from your mistake and try not to repeat it again. Of course there are some cameras that will shoot a panoramic image with a certain function you select, or other programs you can use that will do the stitching for you, but I'm happy putting in the extra effort myself and knowing first hand if it will work or not. On the other hand there are super duper expensive 'medium format' film cameras that will shoot a film negative at 2x6 inches, but I am not rich and cannot afford that kind of luxury. Maybe someday, but for now I'll just do what works. Some of my favorites include the Mt. Washington Panoramic the Wolverine Cirque Sunrise Panoramic and the Alma Moulton Barn Panoramic. Enjoy!!

Brett Pelletier was raised in a small town in northern New Hampshire surrounded by the natural beauty and history of the White Mountains and New England area. His passion for photography originates from his strong background in visual art including the study in oil painting, crayon d’ache and computer graphic design and carries over into his enthusiasm for the outdoors.
Moving to Salt Lake City, Utah in 1996 to join friends on a good ski year, Brett has remained ever since both for the epic adventure opportunities and the unbelievable combination of scenery in the mountains and uniqueness of the deserts. Originally, Brett carried around a simple point and shoot film camera in order to share his adventures with friends and family, but as time went on photography became more important to Brett and he realized his knowledge in the arts could carry over into a profession in photography if he could just learn to use his upgraded digital camera.
A self taught photographer like many in the profession, Brett researches famous and not so famous photographers alike often for inspiration, and spends countless hours learning and trying new photographic techniques in order to produce the images he offers in his photo gallery. Now seasoned with the steps and skills of an aspiring professional photographer, as well as another new professional camera, he just has to wait like everyone else for that moment of natural lighting that ‘makes’ an image possible. He will of course go out of his way, in many cases wait for the light, or re-visit a particular area over and over to see if it 'happens' and in return provides you with the absolute best images.
Currently Brett is continuing with his photographic career in the areas of action and sports photography, stock imagery, special events or celebrations, portraits, and of course from time to time adds an image or two from a recent adventure to the galleries on this website or maybe even adds a whole new gallery if he’s lucky.=)
