I went up to Spokanne for Christmas and I took a drive around the lake.

Very nice. Looks like beautiful country. I like #2 the most. For me, the composition of #1 and #4 are also very nice, but something about the colors doesn't quite work for me. Maybe #1 has a bit of a green cast, and the colors in #4 are more saturated than I am used to?

Nice set, I love your first image.

Thanks, I'm printing that one and it will be hanging on my wall.

I love that part of the world. Especially the route I've taken to get there in the past.

The first is my favorite. The fourth reminds me of Emerald Bay in Lake Tahoe.

Beauty Bay.
Did you see many bald eagles, they used to congregate in that area.
I like the first shot other than the blue tint.
The last shot I also like, blue tint again, and slightly tilted to the left.
That is such a pretty area, hope you enjoyed your visit.

There were some eagles flying around, you need a really long lens if you want to photograph them though.

Allen, it's great to see you back. I like your style and have been missing your shots. These are a very nice way to say hello again. I'm a sucker for shots like #2 but love the comps of 1 and 4 as well. I do agree that the color saturation seems to be cranked up a bit on them, on my monitor at least.

these are beautiful. but the colours seem a bit oversaturated to me. However, it could be my monitor.

Nice series Allen! I have been over that way a couple of times in the few weeks. I have gone over to try and get some Eagle pics, but the weather has just not been very cooperative!! For that matter, the Eagles have not been either!!

Thanks for sharing your photos Allen! It certainly is a beautiful area.

Thanks for all the comments, about the colors I think this is being caused by smugmug. When I look at them in lightroom they don't have the blue cast and I printed an 8X10 test print and the color looks good.
