I started with photographing some rocks in the lake

I watched this sequence happen a couple of times and towards the end of the second sequence zoomed into the fin to catch the water which was dripping down and off the fin

It takes a while to plow Trail Ridge Road and open it once again for the season as it tops out over 12

Letting the sun wash out some of the scene I photographed these with a hint of the Rocky Mountains in the distance prior to the sun dropping behind the mountains to end another day in Denver

Spring Snow at Sloans Lake Size:11"x14" I started with photographing someIt is not uncommon to see snow in the spring around Denver even going into May. This was one of those days when a light dusting of snow fell in Denver overnight greeted with clear skies in the morning. Getting close to the ground I focused on the grass an using a shallow depth of field put the trees in the background out of focus. This allows the viewer to have a sense of place but puts the attention on the snow in the fresh spring growth.
