17 Aug 12.  We'll finish out this week with another of the old images that I've reworked. This one is from Craters of the Moon National Monument located in the south central  portion of ID. I was told by some folks that I would really find it disappointing and by others that I would love it. We visited it twice on one trip so you know where I fell in that assessment. The yellow flowers that I mentioned lined the side of the road in Kolob Canyon were also present in great abundance at Craters of the Moon and fill a goodly portion of this image. The combination of the flowers in front, the dead trees in the middle, and the hills in the background provided an opportunity for some fun photography. If you ever find yourself anywhere near that part of ID, I highly recommend you pay it a visit. This image was taken at the very end of September; 8 days later it was under 6 inches of snow. D300; Aperture Priotity; ISO 500; 1/500 sec @ f /11.
