Just saw a documentary with Tom´s pictures of Yellowstone – gorgeous photos – breathtaking! Am hoping to see more.
Fabulous Yellowstone in winter film was just shown on German TV. Special praise for the whole team. We noticed the names of Shane Moore and Tom Murphy, but I am sure there are many others who deserved to be named.
Thanks Tom Murfy.Job well done.
I am watching it right now. It brings back an amazingly wonderful memory about 2 years ago. I was traveling alone, spending the night in West Yellowstone, having dinner, I think, at Bullwinkle’s. Saying to the other diners, “What a shame. I was planning on going into the Park tomorrow, but a snowstorm is coming.” Most everyone had cancelled travel plans and were avoiding the area. “I would think that would be to your advantage,” said someone. “The Park will be nearly deserted.” He was right. It was me and about 5 cars and the vast park and the bison nearly all to myself. I bought Tom Murphy’s beautiful book at the Lodge. What a treat to enjoy this tonight. What a memory. http://www.kariemitchell.com
I just finished watching the documentary ‘Christmas in Yellowstone’ Awesome photography, Awesome Scenery,…I would love to go there someday…
and I really now want to get Tom Murphys book…
Thanks for sharing..
Absolutely stunning beauty…
I just finished watching the documentary on PBS and was in awe by the shear beauty of the images and the cinematography. eg. The sunrise, fogbanks and sweeping winds across the snowfields and over the ridges are just fantastic shows of mother nature.
My biggest hobby is winter photography and am lucky to see what Tom achieved. Mostly impressed I was with his way of camping. Reminds me of my first night out when I was drafted in the army in January… Once my babies grow up, we will be enjoying nature too. Beyond our own 15 acres in the woods of Upstate NY Finger Lakes that is.
Looking forward to see more of Toms images.
What is Tom Murphy’s website?
Writing as I’m watching. Keep up the great work WNET. Thru programs like yours just maybe we can preserve the areas of the planet that have not been altered or destroyed. Tom Murphy is a special one-of-a-kind. I truly enjoyed!!

Visited Yellowstone this past October after a snowfall. Thanks for refreshing those beautiful memories for me.
I absolutely could not take my eyes away from the TV as I watched Tom’s breathtaking photo’s of Yellowstone in the winter! Visiting Yellowstone was one of the most memorable trips my husband and I had taken. Our trip was taken in the summer, but to see what it looks like in the dead of winter made me immediately say to my husband ‘when can we go?’ Watching this was like going on a spiritual journey. Thank you Tom and PBS for not only bringing back some wonderful memories, but for reminding me of how truly beautiful LIFE is. It’s something we ALL need a reminder of from time to time.
Tom is an amazing! photgrapher and human being. I respect and honor what he does for the animals, for all of us. What a wonderful gift it is to have his work!
My daughter, grandson and I spent 2 days touring Yellowstone in Aug. 2008, what a wonderful trip. For anyone who hasn’t visited at anytime of the year you should treat yourself to the beauty and wonders of God’s creation. I would like to be able to return each year at different seasons. I don’t think I would ever tire of being there. Your program was great.
Words fail to express the fantastic video of Christmas in Yellowstone Park,the scenery the animals and the fantastic photography of Tom Murphy Congratulations to all. God willing, I see this wonderful Park
Dear Mr. Murphy:
I saw your film, “Christmas In Yellowstone” twice, and I was so amazed at all of your HARD work. The images you have captured still stand out in my mind. The one of the buffalo, in the snow, laying down by the steaming gyser is beautiful. I see your photos as painting with light. Golden Light.
How can I buy a book from you, signed by you, as our local book stores do not have it.
I would like to make the journey, to Yellowstone, this Christmas, and see through your eyes.
Pease, let me know.
Yours truly,
MARGO GABOR
Thank you for noticing the wild beauty of Yellowstone. In the winter it becomes more elemental. You may purchase any of my books on my web site and I will sign them for you.
