Very nice shots, I like the first one the most. Clouds in the sky, rule of 3rds, shadows to add depth to the mountains.

Wait... these look awfully familiar...

Looks like the second backgroud here: http://www.9xmedia.com …ads/2000-Backgrounds.html (external link)

Anyway ,very nice images. It looks to me like #2 has a slight tilt.

Number one is my favorite here. I love the highlights in the trees and it has alot of feel. Great composition here.

#2 I think is very good, but would be much better with a foregound element.

#3 superb shot. The tree reflection is awesome. Great placement of the silver tower. What is that anyway?

Thank you so much. About 2 years ago we had a family reunion in Hamilton. My family has been in the area for a few generations. I spent time there as a kid and just loved it. I hope to retire there. Thanks for the pictures.

I like number two, the river leads you through the picture, but would be better with a foreground as said above. Great colours, a real wintery feel to the light.

I really don't know what the tower is. Two golf courses are in the area but Fort Missoula is also very close. Maybe a grain or water tower of some kind. Glad you enjoyed the shots.

I definitely like the first one. Pretty country, too!
