Early Springtime Nature in Colorado. Rocky Mountain National Park and Boulder Falls.
Back in 2007 I was assigned to do a technology transfer project where I got to live in Boulder, Colorado two weeks a month for ~18 months. This allowed me to spend my weekends discovering Colorado, and see all four seasons of Rocky Mountain National Park. It was a great opportunity to better learn how to use a digital camera. Three of the images were taken in Rocky Mountain National Park – A Red Crossbill (the bird is yellow), Purple Columbine wildflowers at Lily Lake, and a Panorama at Bear Lake (best viewed full screen). I remember that he hike around the lake was a bit difficult as there was still a lot of snow on the trail. The final image is Patrick at Boulder Falls — one of the folks I hired to help with the technology transfer. I wonder what the waterfall looks like now after the flash floods a couple years ago.
