The Lumix Years - 2017

 

The Great Sand Dunes

 

Colorado's Sangre de Cristo Mountains funnel the prevailing west winds to create the Great Sand Dunes.

Firecrackers

Dew-covered firecracker flowers are like miniature trumpets.

Indepent Doorways

The ghost town of Independence east of Aspen is still standing but some of it is standing on a slant.

Gentians, Aspen

Gentians bloom late in the summer, their flowers the color of the late summer sky.

Tree Reflection

By inverting a photo of a reflection and increasing contrast and saturation, a forest becomes a painting.

Desert Varnish

Minerals dissolved in rainwater leave stained streaks down the desert sandstone.

Mountain Geranium Blossoms

Purple veins direct pollinators to the center of mountain geranium blossoms.

Falls In Lava Rock

Lava cliffs crumble under the constant onslaught of falling water.

Old Wooden Door

Unfinished wood weathers into a variety of darker colors.

Monk's Hood

Dark purple Monk's Hood flowers are coated with dew early on a summer morning.

Wild Horse Butte

Wild Horse Butte babysits the myriad little gremlins of Goblin Valley State Park in Utah.

Maroon Bells, Marmot

A marmot, who lives here year-round, doesn't seem as impressed with the scenery as the humans.

Mill Wheel

This iron-clad mill wheel at the Salman Ranch in New Mexico helped generate electricity and mill grain.

San Juan Mountains

Pacific storms first hit the San Juan Mountains in southwestern Colorado, dropping lots of snow.

Dew Drops On Spring Beauty Flowers

The pale pink blossoms of the spring beauty are so small that dew drops look like pearls.
