Dehui Yang captured the above photo of Molas Lake while camped above Silverton last week. We feel privileged that he shared some of his best "vacation" shots of our personal "stomping grounds." BCB readers are overdue for some quality photos shot through someone else's eye… someone (gulp) maybe even better than your's truly… so I thought it would be nice to share Dehui's photos with you. The majestic mountains pictured and reflected in Molas Lake are called the "Needles," located in the heart of the Grenadier Mountain Range. It's home to three fourteen thousand foot peaks, Eolus, Windom, and Sunlight, all of which we've summited. A stellar shot, Dehui.
John Q rolled into town a few days ago for his annual hiking visit, this time bringing along his newly retired "better half," Joalenn. But that post can wait a couple of days; I've got to get ready to be treated to dinner at Ouray's fine Mexican Food establishment, the Bien Tempo. I recommend the Spinach Enchiladas with grilled chicken. Trust me, opt for the Red Sauce over the Green…you'll be glad you did :))
Now for Dehui Yang's beautiful slide show…for once, I'm in a few pictures :)

Perfect for framing! Especially the fourth one down of you and Bobbie.

Spectacular! Especially the first shot and the one with the mist. He certainly has some skill with a camera, but I always enjoy your "postcards"!
ReplyDeleteThose are stellar photos! It's good to see your mug every now and then! :-)
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful.....love the picture of the mist also.....it's nice to see you and Bobbie together.
ReplyDeleteMarvelous - And to think we liked your photo's.
ReplyDeleteHi Mark and Bobbie,
ReplyDeleteIt is my privilege to be the solo role of your post:).

Dehui, Thanks for sending your magnificent photos!!! As you can tell, my readers are really enjoying them :)

Can't think of a proper adjective ... stellar ~ the colors! ahhhh
ReplyDeleteMark, the photos are great and I enjoyed seeing you and Bobbie in more photos. More importantly, it is great seeing you both up and out on the trails meaning you are both on the mend. Hopefully we can all stay healthy for a while.
ReplyDeleteDehui has quite an eye. Gorgeous photos and super perspective! That first photo is amazing. I love the photo of you and Bobbie:)
ReplyDeleteWOW! Y'all know how to capture the beauty - thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThose photos make me want to wallow in the wildflowers until I am intoxicated, then jump in Ice Lake to sober up.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely amazing photos and your lovely Ouray surroundings!
ReplyDeleteDehui has made quiet an impression on everyone! Thanks Dehui....Mark, if he hangs around Lovely Ouray, you may have some competition. The photo's are out of this world...simply beautiful!

Beautiful photos. John at RVino posts today about the natural scenery of northern Idaho. On the same day, you post more photos of wild flower season in Ouray. The decision is where to make my 2015 travels. Too much (beauty) to see. Too little time.
ReplyDeleteI'm curious.......was Mr. Yang tri-poding these superb photos??
ReplyDeleteI never saw him with a tripod. The anti shake software in newer camera's nowadays is getting pretty sophisticated. He was manually focusing tho…which always helps define and pop the subject.

Mark, I bet your blog has greatly contributed to Lovely Ouray's tourism, especially during this fabulous month of July when wildflowers seem to peak there. I count myself among your many readers who dream of doing that hike and getting that shot!
ReplyDeleteInteresting to see your "backyard" through someone else's eyes. Love how he featured the Columbine.
