Your best landscape photos

I really enjoy landscape photography even though I'm quite the amateur at it. It's a continuous shifting of light, shadows, wind, weather, animals, and so much more. Macro and micro. Every picture can be different even a second apart. Wish I would have gotten into nature photography much earlier in life and found a career with National Geographic or a similar platform. Anyway, I took this photo in the Grand Tetons several years ago when my wife and I visited there. For me, in this picture the timing was perfect. Layered sunrise, bugling elk in the meadows, a lake with hovering cloud formations, and the peaks of the Tetons greeting the sunrise. Enjoy. Show me what you've got. I know there are some GREAT photographers on this site. Cheers.

Couldn't agree more. All the photos posted are spectacular and not a negative comment to be found which, just like the photos, is a breath of fresh air!

A couple of shots from the Canadian Rockies. The first is above Lake Louise. The second is a snow shower approaching the Bow river along the Ice Fields Parkway.

Wow! Thanks for posting.

South Rim of the Chiso's Mts in Big Bend NP. It takes a little effort to get there.

A few more from Glacier NP. The photographic opportunities are endless there. God, the greatest artist of all, created each of them. Cheers.

All great photos! Thanks for sharing ya’ll. I don’t know how many times I’ve been in an environment or situation where I said “Wow, this would make a great photo” and wasn’t able to capture it, or didn’t have the time to. Sunrise, sunset, critters, you name it. Keep posting the ones you have. Each are special.

Those pics bring back memories. Lower Two Medicine lake in Glacier NP. Wife and I took that boat across lake then hiked to Upper Two Medicine lake. We didn’t catch any trout but what beautiful country.

Those are awesome F4.

The single dot of light to the right of center in the trees is my place on "my" 5 miles of shoreline.

Lower Two Medicine is usually windy unless you get there early in the day.
I was there in 2017 for a family reunion and bunch of us took the boat ride including my 91 year old dad.
They said the boat was also 91 years old too, which was pretty amazing.
I know they take them out of the water in the fall and do repairs all winter and then back out in the summer.

The second pic is upper Harrison Lake, has lots of Cutthroat trout and a few Bull trout. On the West side of GNP.
That lake gets very little activity or pressure because it takes a 6 mile hike in and includes fording the Middle Fork of the Flathead river.

Accent up Mount Rainer

Great Thread.

wall cloud rolling thru, yesterday 6/5/22

Glacier NP. Nothing like taking a dunk in ice water (Took several days for my lower danglers to re-emerge.) Real neat viewing black bears in fall, up close, loading up on berries for the winter.

Cross country skiing at Cameron Pass in northern Colorado after a fresh snow. I was trying to ski to the timberline but my partner pooped out before we got there. I skiid on a little higher and took the top pic. I turned around to ski down and took the bottom one. No digital cameras back in those days. I took the pics with an old Argus 35mm.

Don't know if it's my best, but some of my latest edits and trying out some new post-processing software:

Sunrise on the bay at South Padre Island at the beginning of a productive fishing adventure.

Henry's Lake - Island Park Idaho

I fished this lake when it was frozen - ice was almost 12"

We need some cold refreshments! Mirror Lake with Mt Hood in the background. 120 ft Ramona Falls near Mt Hood. Small, nearly frozen waterfall in Washington State.

Cool Photos

Cascade Canyon trail in Grand Tetons NP. A bear cub isn't something you ever want to see on a trail, but Momma bear didn't get spun up much.
