More Flowers (but not Crested Butte!)
Unlike everyone else, I didn't make it up to Crested Butte. But I at least got up to Summit County for a few days. Here's a few of my faves...the first one is along Loveland Pass.

And here's one along the Argentine Trail, above Peru Creek.

Quintessential Colorado shots Grant, love 1 and 3 best. Hey, no night-blooming jasmine???

#1 is absolutely beautiful Grant.

You and Todd own Colorado. The rest of us just sweep up behind you.
The Loveland Pass and Mayflower Gulch images are my favorites.
I'm going to don my custodian duds and give it a shot this weekend. Hope I have conditions as good as you did here!

That's a lot more flowers in Mayflower than I saw a couple of weeks go. Might be time to head back up there.

1&2 stand out to me. The cloud highlights in the reflection are nice.
Good cluster of columbine blooms.

The first image reminds me of an infinity pool, it just goes on forever! The second one has a great comp as well, and the flower shots are gorgeous. :toast:

All are winners, but #1 is a notch above. Very dramatic
