Castillo Creek, New Mexico
My Dad got me up into the mountains in the Castillo Creek drainage Northeast of Taos, New Mexico. He went for fly fishing. I went armed with my camera gear. The wildflowers were abundant, but kind of spread out. None of those fields full of them, but the scenery was spectacular. Here's one of many shots from my trip. I have a gallery posted, too. My gallery includes several snapshots from the trip as well as some serious stuff.

Nikon D200
12-24mm @ 15mm
.4 sec @ f/14

Outstanding gallery Dominic! Looks like you had a productive trip, but it would have been hard for me not to "wet a line". I think my favorites are the ladder shots, but they're all really nice.

Nice to see some Southwest photos - thanks for the link and post!

Great gallery Dominic! I love the sky on the view from Balcony House. I also love the view from Park Point. This is a scan from many years ago from about the same place. How did you get all the pictures at Mesa Verde without thousands of other tourists on them?

Hey Dominic, I love this shot! For me it's compositionally perfect and I love the subject matter (but that's just me). I browsed through your trip gallery and you did get some great shots, with some nice diversity. Your images have certainly wetted my appetite for getting to this area someday. Thanks for sharing! :toast:

Nice gallery, Dominic! Loved the Mesa Verde shots, and the Taos Moonlight was really cool! Thanks for the link to the gallery!
