On the Way

You never know what you're going to get. This was taken on the last day of a week long trip to Glacier. The entire week there really wasn't a good sunrise or sunset. Frustrated and thinking that this morning would be another typical morning, I didn't bother to get up early enough to go anywhere else. When light started to appear, I quickly woke and headed for Glacier's Oxbow.

Those trees are pretty dark in this compressed file. The full file shows more detail, but perhaps it could use a little more. Thanks for the comment.

I really like how the trees and mountains frame the water. Scene may be a little dark, but it is still a beautiful capture of this amazing place.

Laura, thanks for the comment. I tend to like dark images, so I guess my personal bias is creeping in here. Still, I want to avoid too dark an image that doesn't work. Thanks.

It's a classic for a reason, beautiful scene. I like the lower perspective than what is often photographed. Looks like your patience paid off.

Impressive scene. If you can sleep in and get this image, sounds perfect.

Beautiful capture and light. This is one of my all time favorite locations to take in the beauty of nature.
