Thanks Richard – I think I’ll be going happy – maybe relieved would be a better word.

Thanks a lot for the comments!

Great to meet you as well Ryan – thanks for the links, that really looks like a fun trail!

kyungmee – thanks for taking the time to send such a nice message for a second time. I am very lucky! Knowing my efforts are appreciated makes it even more worthwhile.

Swap – I haven’t tried them as b&w – I usually don’t, but it might be a good option here, thanks for the suggestion.

Thanks again for the nice comments.

Wow, love both images but the bottom one is especially nice with the interest of the wooden fence.

Well looks like you captured some beauties. The yellows are out strong there. Very nice images Ron.

Great images Ron. Inspite of the inclement weather and grey sky, these images have turned out awesome. I loved the bottom one with spectacular colors and the wooden fence adding a strong sense of place. A real beauty I must say.
Just one question: In situation such as this where the sky is greyed out, do you also convert the color image to B &W to see which one of the two stands out more ?

I just left a note but did not take..so I try again.
I wanted to let you know that I love coming to your site, it always makes me smile and puts me in ‘awe’. I love these photos..they are so brilliant and rich with color and depth. I have to say, I love how our surrounding look after a storm. It seems to bring out its fullness & color. You are so very lucky to travel to this beauty and we are lucky that you are able to bring them to us!

Great shots Ron! It was really nice meeting you and Janine. Here is a link with info to the Phil’s World and San Canyon trails near Cortez, they are really fun and great for photos. http://www.singletracks.com/bike-trails/phils-world.html , http://www.trails.com/tcatalog_trail.aspx?trailid=BGR041-010.

If you do happen to go down there you are very close to Mesa Verde which is an amazing NP.

That wind was crazy yesterday!!

Best of luck,
Ryan.
