Trail Ridge Road Sunrise

Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado

This image shows my son Paul setting his tripod for a sunrise photo shoot on our first full day in the park. Paul is young enough to climb up to this location for the spectacular view but my rock climbing days are long over so I decided to capture the moment and use Paul as a focal point. It was a beautiful morning but was extremely cold.

Very dramatic shot that shows both the rocky and mountains very well and how massive they are. All with a great sunrise. I remember going out on those rocks. I'm not sure if I could do it now or not. It's amazing that it was so snow free this late in the year. ~BV~

Paul as focal point also perfectly gives the scale of the dimension of the place. And I like that the first rays of the sun highlight his silhouette.
Wonderful composition and capture of the moment. VVV.

What an amazing story this tells!
So perfect in this saga of a father and his son and their attachment to each other and the land.

It reminds me of a picture of explorers from the 1800’s. Just an outstanding image. V
