Reflections In Isabel Lake

When the water is calm, the reflections in the water with cloud formation is always picturesque. As seen here, I captured this image almost at the same time when I have taken my previous posting. I have included the plant on the left side as indication of autumn. I have also used a PL filter for this shot.
Images of nature environment that I love, are clearly shown in “An Outing In Paradise” and “Autumn At Queen’s View”.

Aspen In Autumn

I captured this image at the road side, on our way to Alamosa,Colorado, USA.
As I ever mentioned before “The beauty of nature is not lasting forever”, I think this group of aspen trees clearly shown another stage in nature. As seen here, the colourful autumn of of the backdrop still plays an important roll in contrast to the dried trees.
I fully utilized the overcast soft lighting condition to achieve sufficient contrast for the image. Another sample of of the impact of such lighting condition is clearly demonstrated in my previous posting.

Dried Tree At The Black Canyon

Another image of a dried tree, this time was captured at the Black Canyon of Gunnison National Park, Colorado, USA.
As seen here, the Canyon actually is not completely black. Viewing the Canyon at a closer distance, actually there are many attractive colourful rocks. To me, it is amazing to see such a magnificent landscape formed by nature.
