Train Sunset

It's another scenic movie where the sunset is on the horizon behind something, this time it's a train. The bright sunset contradicts with the dark train. What I like the most out of this picture is that I used the train to block out the sun. I positioned, not really, it so that it wouldn't be too much train or too much sun. Just kidding, this was just one of the lucky car ride shots that I took, nothing special.

Snow

There is snow in the sky and on the ground. These clouds are over the high, snow-capped mountain. The clouds over it might have been the clouds that dumped all of that snow. I don't know have much is up there but I think that there are at least 2 feet of snow. The elevation must be about 12,000- 14,000 feet so that much snow is not that uncommon.

Leaf

This dead leaf is resting in a bed of soft (not really) snow. I focused mostly of the ice particles but I also had just a little on the leaf.

Sunset Mountains

Although this is no multi red, yellow, and orange colors this still is a sunset. The sun, clouds, and mountains or the new colors of the sunset.

Flood Slopes

These are no ski slopes, they are probably flood slopes for when the snow melts. There is no gondola if you want to walk up it, you will find your perfect ski slope that's all to yourself.

Spring Melt

Spring in colder and snowier places always have a time when the ice melts and the ground starts to show. The beautiful rocks are peaking out of the once ice ground.

Ice Pancakes

The ice pancakes in the bottom right of the picture are pretty but not so tasty. Hi, would you like an ice-cake? No, thanks. After all this talk about pancakes and ice, I didn't even talk about the ice around the rocks.

Spring Flower

The spring flowers in Colorado are out and are showing themselves. I cut the left side open which is what you see sticking out.

Pine Trees

Pine Trees are evergreen trees, this means they are evergreen or green all year round. This is why even in 3 inches of snow they are green.

Splat

On the edges of this frozen lake, the ice had melted. I picked up some soft ice and threw it at the lake. The ice burst into thousands of different tiny ice pieces.

Melting Snow

The river has melted the snow above it. The warmer water has made this cool little cliff. What amazing things water can make.

Down Slope

You can see for miles and miles from these mountains. From the top I saw at least 50 mountain peaks and could probably see for 10 miles, it was so beautiful.

Under Bridge

Most people see the top side of a bridge, there is also a bottom side to it. The overhead sun provided for a direct shadow underneath it.

Spring Snow

Spring is the time of year that the snow is melting and the rivers are flowing, this is exactly what is happening here. The snow is in the precess of melting and the river is flowing. I went back later in the day and that piece of ice was gone.

Ice Mountains

This picture is of ice that has been frozen in different colors of white and clear. How they were formed, I have no idea. I believe it is from the waves and the time that the wave freezes.

Broken Glass

In between the rocks is the frozen water, ice. In the hotter temperatures the ice started to crack and also because I stepped on it, but didn't fall in. This gave it a broken glass look.

Ice Take-Over

The points on front are rolling over everything and will destroy everything in it's path. The rocks under it stand no chance and about to be made into a fine dust.

Icy River

It's finally winter at TMann Photography! I visited an icy river and the river was flowing but some of the ice was still there. Prepare from some amazing river photos.

White Spring

One last spring photo, also from my grandfather. The best part is because he was close to the flower and the focus is so sharp.

Dandy Dandelion 

Before I get to the snow and winter photos, I'd like to share two more spring photos. The positioning of the dandelion between the other flowers is perfect. This photo is from my grandfather.
