Sunset at Trout Lake in SW Colorado during peak Wildflower season.
When living in the Telluride/Ridgway area for a year and a half, I spent many collective hours around Trout Lake. Whether I was paddle boarding in the summer, cross country skiing in the winter, or searching for photography compositions in every season, my time was always well spent around this lake.
I've captured dozens of photos around this lake, but none strike that Colorado Summer Feeling as much as this photograph does.
