Northwest Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

Panorama of Browns Park National Wildlife Refuge, a wild, beautiful, remote area of mountains, prairies, wetlands and fabulous skies in the extreme northwest corner of Colorado
Thought we’d drop in on the Broncos!
I was shooting in the complete opposite direction, facing the sunset and the mountains. I had some nice rocks in the foreground that I really liked, but the color just wasn't there behind the mountains. Finally I bailed and walked to the other side of the peninsula to grab this shot of the insane cloud being lit up by the sun. As you can tell I was just a little late as the light had already started to fade from it, but something is better than nothing I suppose. #BVSquad
Stroll along the river, rent a bike or bcycle, or just check out the cool interior.

I struggled tonight with the light. I really wish I could invest in a nice filter kit, including some grad filters were I could also attach a polarizer. Here's the only decent shot. I managed. The sky was just too bright. #BVSquad
