Up To Cinnamon
Not a cloud in the sky, the air crisp yet warm and a touch of fall color on the mountainside. Couldn’t ask for a better day. Looking up to the summit of Cinnamon Mountain in Central Colorado.
Setting Sun
There is nothing more beautiful than a great sunset. The same could be said of wildflowers. Photographed on a hike near Schofield pass CO.
Singing Softly
On an early fall afternoon a rain shower passes as purple mountains softly sing.
Although it’s hard to see, aspens tress are already turning color high up on this peak. Where did summer go? Crested Butte, CO.
Endless Summer
In a landscape that sometimes seems endless summer is coming to an end. The grass is going to seed. The flow in the stream has become lazy and the nights just a bit cooler.
Lake Helen Mackenzie
Morning light on lake Helen Mackenzie. Forbidden plateau area in Strathcona Provincial Park, Vancouver Island BC.
Looking Up
Looking back at the building clouds on the ridge we just descended. Near Lake Irwin, CO.
Glacier Lilly
As summer finally makes it’s way to the upper most reaches of the high country the glacier lilies have started to bloom. Rustlers Gulch near Crested Butte, CO.
Summer Sun
When the wildflowers are blooming in the alpine meadows an overcast day becomes bright and sunny. Summer is indeed here.
After the snowmelt
Looking west while heading towards Sepulcher Mountain Trail in Yellowstone NP. The snow has melted from down low and spring storms are heading in from the west to help green up the grasses. Things are falling into place.
