Rocky Mountain National Park. Dusk at Sprague Lake. 6-08-2011

At dusk one evening on Sprague Lake in Rocky Mtn NP, we found the lake's outlet and used the running water to foreground the six peaks beyond. Happily for us, clouds moved in to give us the atmospherics we needed.

Rocky Mountain National Park. Fire & Rain at Sprague Lake. 6-09-2011

We loved Sprague Lake in RMNP and I decided to concentrate on this location for several days. Here's sunset following a rainstorm. The image reminds me of James Taylor's tune, "I've seen fire and I've seen rain."

Rocky Mtn National Park north of Denver may be our new favorite NP. The park has gorgeous lakes, snow-covered mtns, and many waterfalls. This is Copeland Falls in the Wild Basin area of RMNP (and our first try at a water fall).

Badlands National Park. Pale Evening-Primrose. 6-05-2011

To grow in the Badlands, you have to be tenacious. During our stay, the Pale Evening-Primrose was in blossom--and it seemed to deserve a picture. How this fragile looking plant survives in this dry earth I have no idea!

Badlands National Park. Conata Basin Sunset. 6-04-2011

As our first full day in Badlands National Park ended, I turned from shooting the soft final sweet light toward the east and found a more dramatic scene behind me illuminating the spires and mounds to the west.
