Description
'Blue Lakes Summer Splendor', a fine art landscape photograph by Lynn Cyrus / Cascade Colors. The beauty of summer in the San Juans range of the Colorado Rocky Mountains is showcased in this scene taken in early August. In a year of exceptional wildflower numbers, vivid purple-blue Larkspur, blue Lupine, pink Rosy Paintbrush, and other flowers fill much of this meadow beside lower Blue Lake, within the Mount Sneffels Wilderness Area. This preserved wilderness, also within the Uncompahgre National Forest, is found on the slopes of Mount Sneffels. Mount Sneffels, a 14er (fourteener), can just be glimpsed in the upper right corner of this image, mostly covered in clouds. Mount Sneffels rises between the mountain communities of Ouray and Telluride. This scene is filled with vivid color, from the bright tones of the wildflowers in the foreground, to the varied earth tones of the mountain rocks and lake bottom, to the rich green hues of the alpine meadows and aqua water of the lake.
