Red Mountain Mining Area & Alpine Ridge, Colorado

This is the second of five posts covering my trip to the San Juan Mountains of June 11 - 16, 2013. I figured smaller chunks would be more digestible.

Two trip reports in one day! I feel the need for a nap!

Pop corn is poppin' and a cold root beer is in the fridge. We are greatly enjoying your trip! Is your nap over?

Ditto on the thorough enjoyment of the narrative and the pictures.

Yes, enjoying the reports. You take some really great pictures. I suppose we will have to join the crowd going to Colorado one of these days.

Another great read and set of photo's. What are you shooting to get those great photo's?

Thanks for the nice comments, everyone!

Riverrunner: I shoot with a Canon EOS-7D. Most of the landscape photos are taken using an EF-S 15 - 85mm IS USM "wide-zoom" lens. Most of the wildlife and many of the flowers are captured using an EF 300mm f/4 L IS USM lens with a 1.4x TC attached. The macro photos are taken with the EF 100mm f/2.8 L IS USM lens.

I always shoot RAW and process using ACR and Photoshop, not that you asked

Nice camera gear and it shows. I'm a Canon shooter as well and I shoot RAW and use Lightroom. I've only had a DSLR for 3 years and so I'm still learning. Wish I had more time to partice.

Always opportunities to learn, just get out and do it.
