A Different Look at RMNP - #3
A few more from recent trips to the park. The first one of Moraine Park is a bit more conventional composition-wise, but it's a blend of two exposures, one of the foreground river (with all of the rain we've had Big Thompson is running very full and fast!) and the other of the peaks and fog. (This image also posted on ESS).

Clouds over Mount Ypsilon in a telephoto closeup from early June. The same morning I took the Big Dipper image I posted a few weeks ago.

I really like the first one. My only nit would be that the greens look a bit oversaturated, especially on the left (although that may just be the non-calibrated monitor I am using at work).

Nicely done Josh! I especially like the water motion in #1. I also really like the sillouette images. Just depends on what mood your in as to which is my favorite.

You did it again, Joshua! Of course, I'm kinda particular to that first one with the fog.

These are really nice takes on the more "conventional" RMNP hotspots, I like #1 and #3 the best, very cool!.

#1 is very nice. The blue of the water is remarkable. The mountains look a little soft...maybe a DOF issue? I might do some selective sharpening there.

Love them all, but #s 1 through 3 get my vote. Great job!

Dude, #1 is the BOMB! An elegant feast for the eyes on a classic view. Great work on the silhouette shots, very moody images!!

Wow, what a post! I love all of them, but especially the first two. The light and comps are great. Thanks for sharing. :smile:

I can't play favorites....I like every single one of them!
Of course, the first one is so vibrant that it's the one I return to view.

I'll admit here for the first time that I've never been to RMNP, so all of the places you capture are fresh to me.
