Here's another shot from last week, taken on the East Inlet about 9 miles up from Grand Lake. Even though this image doesn't convey it, the flowers were great!

A beautiful scene for sure, Erik. I really like your comp.

Beautiful scene and composition. If you had some light on the ridge, it would be a real winner. Great one!

Great shot! Looks familiar, I did the Wild Basin to Grand Lake 'hike' last Saturday, did not carry a great camera due to the distance. But I do remember all of the incredible scenery and no people. Some very impressive granite about Lake Verna as well.

Nice! Would really like to see this full size, flowers look great.

Wonderful comp on this Eric. The peaks look pretty rugged. This almost looks like a photo from Yankee Boy Basin. Great find!!!

Looks like good flowers to me. The lead in with the creek is very nice.

Great lines. I love the green flowing all the way up to the ridge. Nice shot!

sweet, soft, subtle light really makes this pleasing comp very nice

Like George says, the soft light makes this a winner.

Beautiful scene. It's so hard to get blue wildflowers to stand out...particularly in smaller images like this. Like Stan says...I'd like to see this one large.
