Spring comes to West Glenwood
I had to work in Rifle for the morning, and then had some free time on the way back. West Glenwood had some incredible greens and with the red in the hills, made for some beautiful color. It was mid-day, so I'm battling harsh light. Still worth the time.

Still worth the time??? Morris, you are the Master of Understatement! These are epic!

The area seems to be regenerating nicely after the fire.
The splotches of differing tones of the bright greens and the V in #3 attract and funnel the eyes well.

All are nice but that last one is outta the ballpark, Morris. Gorgeous colors all-around.

Exacrly what Bret said. These are magnificent!
The harsh light appeared to be your friend on this day.That last one is quite special.
Good job of 'development', too.

Way to go, Mo'!

Morris - you nailed it. Drive thru that area often and admire the reds but, never stop to shoot it. With those spring greens you real have something special!! Way to go.
