This image is the color version of the black and white image from the previous post (which you can see here).
I flip flop between which one I like better depending on my mood, however today I am leaning towards the color vesion.
Here is the black and white version:

After a morning of fishing around Brooks Lake in Shoshone National Forest in Wyoming, a summer afternoon storm started to roll in. Right on cue when you are in the mountains this time of year. I took this image right before it thundered and hailed for a bit while I comforted my cowering dog in the car until the thunder stopped.
I’ve been drawn toward black and white images more than I have been in past, which may have something to do with my changing mood as I am writing the first drafts of my masters thesis. I enjoy how they seem to be based more on how you want to express the feeling and mood of the scene or emphasize form and patterns more instead letting the color form the patterns. Nature doesn’t need color to still be beautiful.

This is an image from about a year ago that I took in August while in Grand Teton National Park. Taking photographs of the Cathedral Group of peaks (Teewinot, Grand, and Mount Owen) never gets old. This particular image has the Grand to the left, its highest peak with clouds clinging to it, and Mount Owen in the center.
