I needed a little escape to the mountains today. Evening on Bear Lake in Rocky Mountain National Park. Photo by Steve Coyle Photography (www.stevecoylephotography.com)
Sunrise on Sprague Lake in Rocky Mountain National Park. Getting up before dawn can have it's advantages. We finally had a few clouds in the sky on this morning after several days of clear blue skies. I always enjoy what a few clouds add to a scene.

I have been a fan of the 19th century painter Albert Bierstadt since I was in college and discovered his work. When we made our trip to Rocky Mountain National Park, Bierstadt Lake was on my list of places I wanted to hike to when we were there. Although I would have preferred a little less wind for better reflections off the lake or a little more dramatic weather, I'll take what I got and share it. It is still a beautiful scene that I would gladly revisit if given the opportunity. Photo by Steve Coyle Photography (www.stevecoylephotography.com)
