Becky and I looked out over the sunrise as it rose over the waters. We had just stepped out of our bedroom onto the covered porch of the villa we were staying at.

After hiking the trail to Alberta Falls, we continued on to Loch Vale and from there went on to Lake of Glass. This required hiking/scrambling up steep ledges of a 20 foot water fall to reach this scene. The air was so thin that I had to stop to take breathers after climbing up several boulders at a time.

After you entered Rocky Mountain National Park, there was a narrow pothole filled gravel road that traveled up the mountain at a steep incline named Old Fall River Road. In this view, we have traveled higher than the tree line and have a view of the alpine tundra in front of the mountains.

This was the view from our cabin porch. We stayed at a cabin at YMCA of the Rockies in Estes Park just outside of Rocky Mountain National park. I work up early in the morning and made this photo around 5:30 in the morning. The diffuse pink/purple lit up the sky for a short time with an alpenglow effect.

We pulled off the Beartooth Highway onto the gravel shoulder. We then hiked past a sign that said 'hazardous falls' to reach this little bridge over the falls and rushing stream. I combined 3 exposures with a slow shutter speed to capture the movement of the water. This is located just off the Beartooth highway in Northern Wyoming in Custer National Forest.

A mountain rushing stream passed under the Beartooth Highway as we traveled towards Yellowstone. I doubled back, parked beside the road and we hiked to an overlook of the waterfall. The mist in the air was fresh on our faces. The grey sky held the sun back enough that I could make a photo with the water blurred.
