TetonCam Sunset, 2008.
Photographer comment: I'm not sure if I can take credit for this image! It was taken by a webcam I operate in Teton Valley, Idaho, on the west side of the Tetons. I recently upgraded the webcam with a 3.1 megapixel camera. The view is usually very nice but this one was particularly special so I had to share it.
