Took a drive through this park earlier this week. Autumn is really nice as there isn't a huge deluge of tourists and one can move around at their own pace without being pushed. The snow is certainly starting at the higher elevations. On my drive into the park the night before I came through quite a little snow storm on one of the passes, to the point where I saw the snowplow out.

Looks just like the mountains we have here in Florida! :shock: :lol:
These are beautiful shots and I'm so jealous that we don't have anything approaching that type of scenery here.
Did you take any vertical shots?

These are all beautiful, but #1 is my favorite. The clouds just lead you right into the pass through the mountains. I love it!

These are ALL great shots, they are sharp throughout the entire photo, which i usually like in landscape photography. These shots really give u a feeling that you are there in the scene, and thats something i really look for. Great job!

Thanks everyone. As far as lenses go the first one was with the 16-35, the middle two with the Tamron 28-75 and the last one was with the Canon 24-70.
