Default Landscape Shots From The Hyalite Resorvoir

While everyone else smoked and fished, I took pictures. It was a stunning day in the canyon and I tried to capture the grandeur of the scenery with the pictures. In post-processing I used Photoshop to bump up the vibrancy of the pictures. Is it too much vibrancy/contrast?

Well done David for not smoking, but for not fishing, how dare you. You redeme yourself with your pictures, a beautiful location, beautifully captured and presented, my favourite is the fly fisherman, nicely done

Nice pictures. I can see Hyalite Peak from my house, except I'm on the other side of the mountains in Park County. It's nice to see another local on here

I like first composition and second color scheme. In the first shot your concerns are well founded, in my opinion...

Anyway very nice place to spend a lot of time.

the first shot was the most obvious culprit. Maybe I'll tone it down a little bit, so to speak. thanks for the comments and compliments!

and I did fish a little bit, i've just never fly fished in my life. So it's taking a little while to get hooked on...
