This one is from a great trip a couple summers ago, out looking for wildflowers on Kebler Pass, and then down to the San Juan's. This image was from a great sunrise at Lost Lake Slough, just off the Kebler Pass road. I'll post another image from that same morning next.

Nymph lake is not exactly hard to find or to get to, but it served me fairly well on Saturday night I think.

Killer stuff here!!
My contribution ... a quiet unknown lake (which will stay that way ) in the San Juan Mountains, on a rainy afternoon. Converted to b/w and split toned using a custom digital process.

Jimmy! Good to see you here. And good to see this amazing image again. I remember the moment like it was yesterday - even though I showed up late to the "dance". Haven't seen anything like it since.
Beautiful shots everyone! Here's a little different take; ive been 'reflecting' on the enormous destruction of our pine forests by fire and beetles, which will forever change our landscape in our lifetimes.
This is Green River Lake in the Wind River Rnage, WY, shot on Sunday.
This is shadow mountain Canal from behind the lodge I was staying at near Lake Granby, looking towards the Indian Peaks, I loved how the water was such a clear deep blue, with no ice despite it being winter

Very nice shots everyone as expected This is a different comp from a post on ESS recently. Taken near Trinidad, Co. at sunrise.
Hi everyone. Great shots. I have only posted a couple of times, but couldn't resist posting a couple of shots I have.

Okay...I'll bite...I will attempt to be creative, and a bit literal.
I like the "softness", with the snow showers on the Bells and imperfect reflections in Maroon Lake. Art is subjective.
While there are some literal reflections, the "reflection" of the "model" caught my eye.
He also provided some image tension for me, because he's not looking at the Bells, and I wondered what his eyes were focused on. Or, maybe he was just reflecting on his surroundings, being from Indiana.

Here's a couple of images taken this summer at Mirror Lake in Utah's Uinta Mountains. I hope the link works.

One more attempt on creative "reflections". This artist was reflecting the Grand Artist at the Bells.

Tom,
As an Indiana native, I can relate to your "reflector" staring off into Never Never Land. I get lost in the pine trees every time I visit Colorado. Something about them draws me in. While the Bells are magnificent, the trees bring me back to childhood vacations spent wandering the woods and mountains. I really like both your photos, but the painter is my favorite. Thanks for sharing! Makes me wish I lived there!

Thanks Amy. The artist was serendipitous for me. BTW...I did TV weather on channel 8 in Indianapolis from '84 to '91, so I still have some "Hoosier" in me.

Caz, that image is just perfect! Amazing how something so simple can have so much impact!
