#6 Moody evening in Taylor Park

#7 Fields of columbines on the edge of the Flat Tops, with the Elk Mountains rising in the distance. BTW, later this day a bunch of sheep came through here and ate almost all the columbines, leaving most of the wild geraniums behind.

That's all for now...

Great series Todd! I really like the barn and the East River bend.

Great stuff, Todd! The river bend and the B&W are my favorites, and I imagine the deer will be a crowd-pleaser. And those columbines are wonderfully in-your-face.

They're all great Todd, you make it tough to pick a favorite. I think I'll go with #1 followed by #2. That field of columbine seemed to be a pretty popular spot for both man and beast. I know of three people shot that same seen.

I love the columbines, but all of them are great.

Wow, what a collection! Those sunflowers against the white clouds,,,,what a unique and spectacular idea! And the deer and lupine is sublime! That East River view is cool, it is a great but too short Class IV kayaking run by the way. Glad you made it to the columbines before the sheep did their thing! :toast:

Great stuff Todd. Really like #2.

Love the BW and the deer among wildflowers. The sunflowers make a great high-key image.

What a wonderful assortment of odds & ends! I'm really enthralled by #'s 1, 2, 4 & 7. One of the finer columbine images I've seen this year.
Excellent work, Todd!

Wonderful work as usual Todd. I like the river bend, I don't think I ever seen it done like that .. and the barn is quite nice.

The deer shot is wicked! I also really like #7 :smile:
Posted by Morris McClung on July 31, 2011 at 11:17 PM
Ditto on the deer shot and #7 is definitely going to be in your calendar next year! Another fantastic collection, TC! :toast: :toast:

Double wow! What a joy to look at. Love your work Todd.
Posted by Jody Grigg on August 1, 2011 at 10:29 AM
Nice variety of work Todd. Don't care too much for the little piece of grass on the lower left corner of the BW shot.
Posted by Dottie L Lloyd on August 1, 2011 at 10:42 AM
#1 and #2!!!!! Why didn't we go to #2? Saving that for the next trip out huh? Great pics! You live shuch a sheltered life....hahahaha!

Another great series of shots Todd. I like 2,3 and 7 the best with probably 7 best overall...just a terrific Columbine shot. :toast:

Awesome Todd ! they are all great !!
Posted by Jeff Hackett on August 2, 2011 at 1:30 PM
The columbine image just screams Colorado to me, just beautiful. The more I look at #1 the more I like it, and the deer looks tasty. I like the conversion, but the sprig of grass in the lower left draws my eye away from all the cool leaf patterns.
Posted by Doug Koepsel on August 2, 2011 at 2:04 PM
Todd, this whole set is nice. #4 grabs me the most with the range of tones and shapes. I am undecided about the grass tip, though.
Posted by Joshua Hardin on August 2, 2011 at 2:29 PM
Wonderful collection Todd. I love the East River "Horseshoe Bend" and the columbine photo is great! The spotlight on Sopris is a nice touch.

Nice series TC - really like the last one.
