Lin Evans Posted July 10, 2007 Report Posted July 10, 2007 A little fun family show I made for my mother-in-law who lives in California. Local Colorado scenery and wildlife and of course the "Colorado Girl" who is my wife, Sherry. The three images of her span over 20 years with the last one being taken this afternoon. Our two great roping horses, Naroya and Choco seen in the second horse image taken 21 years ago have passed on now and Nicky, the palomino in the last shot taken today with Sherry is 32 years young! Sherry will celebrate her half-century minus one year birthday next month - LOL. Both she and Nicky are doing great.http://www.lin-evans.net/p2e/coloradogirl.zip (about 44 meg) - running time about 6.5 minutesLin Quote
mightec Posted July 10, 2007 Report Posted July 10, 2007 LinViewed your slideshow - Colorado Girl, really fine photography and effects. Particularly liked the photograph with the mountains reflected in the lake, is this how it was or is there a little PhotoShop licence being used here. Thanks for sharing, music fitted the show really well. Quote

Lin Evans Posted July 10, 2007 Author Report Posted July 10, 2007 Thanks Mike,No PhotoShop at all - that's Maroon Bells. one of the most photographed spots in the world just as photographed at sunrise. There's only about a 30 second "window" to catch the golden hues before they turn orange. You set up at the end of Maroon Lake about 4:00 am in total darkness and start snapping as the sun rises - definitely an awe inspiring sight.Best regards,Lin LinViewed your slideshow - Colorado Girl, really fine photography and effects.

Lin Evans Posted July 10, 2007 Author Report Posted July 10, 2007 Thanks Neil,Yes, Colorado is a great place for scenic wonders. Those of us who live in the great SW are fortunate to have many opportunities to capture nature just by waking up and walking outside in the morning. Sherry thanks you too! She's blushing - LOL...Best regards,LinLin,Some great images and a lovely lookin' woman! You certainly live in a beautiful part of the world and make a mean slideshow.

cagney123 Posted July 10, 2007 Report Posted July 10, 2007 Lin...just a dog-goned good show. Superb photos...just amazing. Thanks for sharing.Jeff Quote
Lin Evans Posted July 11, 2007 Author Report Posted July 11, 2007 Hi Howard,Thanks - the birds in Rocky Mountain National Park and the Colorado area are very interesting. As you probably already know these were the Clark's Nutcracker and Steller's Jay and of course Bald Eagle. The Steller's and Nutcrackers love to hang out on the high elevation roadside stops and beg for treats from the tourists. The Nutcrackers' as especially "crafty" and like seagulls will take food right away from you when you're not looking - LOL.Beat regards,Lin Lin, Thanks for sharing the "The Colorado Girl" with us.
