Paintings by Albert Bierstadt I presume ?
Beautiful stuff. You must be a pro.
That last one is spectacular.

Me? If so, thank you! I'm not a professional photographer, but my father was, and he showed me how it's done. I'm more of a painter.

Yes, nice photos @scvaughn . Even the mid day photo is great and that’s not easy. Bierstadt? That’s Hudson River School but you knew that

I took these last June, during a combination climb of Wetterhorn and Uncompahgre. It was a San Juan "tundrathon" kind of day.

As you know Dan, growing up in the same area, seeing Hudson River School paintings is like going home. Some wonderful Coles and Churches in the Museum in Pittsfield.

Agree, this is the pic ^ that really stuck me especially as being pro skills - not easy at all.

Interesting paintings scvaughn, they remind me of Huitchol yarn painting.

Thank you, JCF. I like sharing my adventures with friends and family, and photos are a great way to do it. The textile art of various indigenous peoples provides inspiration for painting.

Ominous clouds rolling in over the summit of La Plata last October. I booked it down immediately after taking a few photos.

Is that Chile?

Is that Chile?

No, but I'd love to go there. The La Plata in my photo is near Aspen, CO.

24 April 2023, At least this motorist could enjoy a nice view while waiting to be issued a speeding ticket. This is Mt. Nebo, elev 11,928, tallest peak in the Wasatch range and one of the more southern. Photo taken from northbound lane of Interstate 15 about 100 miles south of Salt Lake City.

Isn’t the speed limit 80mph there? Must’ve been going too slow!
