Thanks! This is at the lake that has Bird Island in the middle… it’s a 1/4 jaunt down from the main road through a lot of brush… kinda hard to find methinks!

It is nice to have great photos in the library that you shared with your family. One of my favorite photos was taken while hiking with my wife and daughter.http://www.flickr.com/photos/alaska48/2607747247/ What fun.

Cool photo! Have you ever photographed the Columbia Gorge? There’s a lot of great photo ops there.

Wow, Trey, absolutely gorgeous picture. The glaciers caused a lot of the formations as well as the actions of the earths crust millions of years ago. Glacier Park is a wonderful place to visit. It’s full of almost every kind of formation you can imagine. And the wild life and flora are great, too. Trey, what part of Montana are you coming to?? I’ll be at Fairmont Hot Springs Resort next weekend at a TOPS function. Hope you can come to the Bitter Root Valley area someday!!!!!!

I found the matching folds on either side of the lake as intersting as the cleaved granite. The erosion from water flow (?) cut deeply into folds to produce this shape. How gigantic the forces would have been to cause the folds shown here. The layers above the folds would also be duplicated below water line. Great picture.

What a breathtaking landscape! I like the vertical orientation; works great with the wide angle, being able to see the rocks in front of you.

Wow, very cool Trey! Love the texture in this photo. Also love how at first your drawn to what’s right in front of you but then all of the sudden your drawn into the faraway mountain!
