Took lots of photos on the recent raft trip down the Yampa. It's a beautiful canyon. Even with some rain it was a great trip, good food, and good company.

The first is Deerlodge Park at the put in.

A picture to distract me from the rapid we were about to go through.

Looks like a good trip. I love the drama in that last one.

Looks like a fun and wild trip. Nice series too - I like the 1st image with the grassy FG best.

I'll be different. I like #3 & #4. I may be biased on 4, since I took a similar shot. But I like how yours is a short exposure, pano vs. my veritcal long exposure. I think I might like your version a bit more.

Thanks Grant...if you had posted yours, I probably wouldn't have posted mine. I liked the raging water...but later (if we hadn't been in a hurry)...I thought it would have been nice to do a vertical with even more water. Oh, and thanks for spotting the tree...:)

You caught those storm clouds well in #5. I remember Brad saying he wondered what we were shooting....and then he turned around.
