Indian Peaks Wilderness -- Isabelle Glacier Trail

I received a new lens on Friday, so yesterday I headed up into the high country to test it out. The two lenses used were the Samyang 14mm F2,8 and Samyang 35mm F1.4. For those who haven't heard about them, they are two of the BEST lenses I have used for the money spent, bar-none. $339 for the 14mm and $379 (on sale at the time) for the 35mm. These are fully manual lenses, so that might be a negative for some, but not for me, I prefer it.

Anyway on to the photos. These were taken in the Indian Peaks Wilderness, mostly along the Isabelle Glacier trail. This is an absolutely beautiful place for a hike, and not too bad an area to test out lenses :D
