Steve, thank you for reminding me to stop. Sit. Look. And give thanks.
Thank you, the best medicine for a motivation low. The quality is undeniable (both video and stills).
Glad you enjoyed it!
Time spent with animals is the best, thanks again for sharing...

You offered yet another respite and reset. Beautiful work.
Thank you very much!
Wonderful wish I was there thanks again!
Seriously tack sharp focus on hovering dragonflies. I'm liking it.
Sony A1 saves the day!

Thanks for sharing.
Omg..goose bumps good! Thank You!
Wonderful wonderful wonderful video. A real treat, Steve. Loved it!
Glad you enjoyed it
Very cool, thanks for taking us along!
Those dragonflies are top shots!
This is exactly what I needed when I needed it. I went home for for lunch, fixed a sandwich and a little tomato and cucumber salad, and watched your video today. It helped me to reset after a tough morning at work. Thank you for sharing your work and your passion, and keep on keeping on. #goanddo #dothework
Refreshing
Thanks!
Good video once again. Impressive..ty for the peaceful video.
Those dragonflies! Holy crap
Love the Moose ponds, a must for us when we visit
Thanks for the nice journey to the pond 👍🤓💎
Glad you enjoyed it
Awesome!! So beautiful, 👋from Colorado
Great place for moose. They can stay cool in the water and they have all that available food to eat.
Enjoyable video and wonderful images. Thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it
Simply lovely - thank you.
Thank you too!
That was awesome, amazing images...Wish it want on longer....
So beautiful!
STEVE-- That was absolutely Beautiful and your music was perfect for your video!(Randy Bocksnick)
Excellent video Steve. It is quite relaxing to watch. Good work!
Glad you enjoyed it
To have the Tetons as your backyard. What a beautiful thing.
My two moose experience have been 1) 1hr+ for the most part was facing the other direction, pooped and went behind trees (only proof of seeing it type shots, nothing special) 2) spotted what didn't look like the brush around it and watched through the lens and saw the antlers move.. waited 1hr plus for him to get up in the cold/snow.. hands were so cold almost couldn't take the pics.. but did get some and even another slightly smaller bull trailed in behind him as they went off back up the mountain.. :) BTW, love the intro!
mmm...soul food...how tasty it is...🙏
thanks for sharing.
Great video man, I love the footage, and the style!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Well done well done
Excellent!!
This is beautiful, Steve. The music goes so well with the film.
.... perfect ....
Very nice.
Thank you Steve for this video just brightened my day more than you will ever know. I love my Moose they are my favourite animal and could just spend hours on top of hours making photos of them and just watching them. It has not been a very good week mentally but as soon as I turned this video on my happiness overloaded my depression for 7 minutes of true joy. Thank You Steve and enjoy the days doing what makes you happy.
You had the Bob Ross zen going on when speaking
Excellent sir...
Oh man. I’m hiding in my house here in Oregon in 102 heat with smoke in the air and no rain for 2 months. So yeah, you win. Thanks for torturing me with this! 😀
Fantastic whit the mooses in the water :o)
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
My husband, daughter and I were in this same spot in August. Mama moose in the pond as well as young moose. Mama stared for a long time at the left hand corner where the forest meets the pond…and then the mama bear stepped out from the forest with at least two baby bears following her. It was the most magical and awesome experience ❤️. Thank you for sharing your hour.
Fantastic video.
Beautiful video thanks for sharing>
a lovely mellow video first time watching you now subscribed hi from the uk
welcome!
Great video and set of images. BTW I've stolen that GoPro-on-the-camera perspective for my own videos. People love it!
Nice one Steve. 👍🏾
great video, left a thumb in it. Greetings from Sigmundmo
Thanks for the great video 😊
What better to do on a hot summers day than spend the afternoon in a cool pool and ear fresh salad greens. Great stuff.
What a beautiful place and a wonderful film.
Awesome capture of that hovering Darner...ode sweet ode!
What a beautiful place to spend an hour!
NICE!!! 👍👍👍
Thanks 👍
The Tetons - simply one of the best spots on earth!
Another beautiful video and fantastic images...but the two dragonfly shots..WOW!!!!
thanks for sharing. These are the kind of days I treasure the most. No specific agenda, no target species, no pressure, just sitting by a pond or walking through the woods taking photos of all the beautiful things that surround us every day.
Well said!
@@SteveMattheis Thanks
Thanks for that small moment of Zen.
your very lucky and fortunate to be in the Grand tetons. I live in the city and the only Park I have close to me is Huntely Meadows in Virginia which is surrounded by suburbia. I have been very fortunate there for years with beaver, migratory birds and recently, River Otters, Clapper Rails, Sora Rails, and the exotic birds that belong in florida and the tropics, Rosette Spoonbils, Glossy Ibises, and little blue herons. My dream is to get one of those Mountain lions and of couse bears and Elk.
Yep, the elusive mountain lion...
A beautiful looking location to get some peace and quiet. Super Video and Photos again Steve 👍🏻
Excellent video and still images Steve! Thanks for sharing.
Great video!
Great stuff man. Super mellow from start to finish. You’ve conveyed the serenity beautifully.
We just got back from the tetons a couple days ago, and the wildlife experience was way different this year than last year. Last year everywhere we turned we found tons of wildlife, this year I don't know if the smoke is impacting the animals but they were hard to find. Surprisingly our best luck was up along the trail towards surprise lake, which we figured with all the human traffic that would scare off the animals but we saw lots of bear and the largest stag I've ever seen!
We were there between 8/8 and 8/10. First timers. Mesmerized by the beauty of the Tetons. Hoping to see 399 and her cubs. Only caught a glimpse of a young black bear and an elk in the woods on our way to the campground. It’s said there were bear activities between Tetons and Yellow Stone area.
It's been so hot this summer...
So beautiful and peaceful! I need some of that in my life, now!
It must be about time for a photo trip to the Tetons 😬
awesome bro
That was beautiful! And so relaxing to watch. I can’t imagine a better way to spend a morning.
❤️❤️❤️
Love this but I say that about all your videos. Such a special talent you have 💕
Amazing amazing. The clarity on the dragonfly was unreal. You definitely got the eye for photography😘
Very nice Steve, great shots and relaxing video.
Excellent video and some excellent images and just long enough to eat breakfast!
Like the video very much, simple video no rambling as on other channels...
It was an 'off' day for me... I usually ramble and ramble and ramble...
Looks like an aptly named pond, can’t wait to visit again. Nice video.
Thanks Steve - a great interlude during a busy day.
Glad you enjoyed it
Great stuff as usual. KEEP UP THE FANTASTIC WORK!
Love it Steve wish i was there taking photos with you one day i will my husband loves fly fishing love the great photos and videos of the dragonfly’s awesome so colorful 😊 god bless you and Stephanie
Very nice. I always wait for your videos.
Glad you like them!
Beautiful. I really enjoyed this video.
An hour well spent. Neat to see the pair of moose! Too bad the Sony whiffed on that great blue heron.
It found the eye no problem when shooting stills but the eye AF doesn't work in video mode (at least I can't figure out how to make it work).
What a moment! You are a big inspiration Steve. Thanks! :)
great captures...especially the Dragon Flies.
Can’t believe you can these at any random hour long visit. Even with extensive experience at the pond, it must have taken many visits. The processed photos were lovely. Thanks.
Believe it or not, this was only my second visit to that pond in the last four years...
Beautiful, thank you for sharing
A couple of years ago I emailed you about meeting for coffee since I was in the area. We didn't meet up, but the night before I emailed you, I spent 30 minutes with my 25 year old daughter at that very lake, on those very rocks, watching a moose graze. Best memory of that trip for both of us. And probably the highlight of all our trips.
That is awesome!
Every video I think, well he got all this gorgeous video why does he need photos? Then your photos blow me away! There is something about a photo that even great video can't compare to. Thanks for the content keep it up!
These are some of the best shots of moose I've ever seen -marvellous capture!
Gorgeous!
Top quality filming Steve.
That was amazing Steve. Thank you.
those dragonfly shots though
Steve, nature at it's best. Thanks for sharing. I need to visit the Tetons and Yellowstone park (never been).
You should!
Loved the slow motion dragonfly videography and photos. Perfect companion music. Oh, and the moose wasn’t bad either😉
Thanks 👍
