The photo I called River Edge of Town was taken at the same time as the night photos of the town, but passing headlights lit the scene resulting in a reasonably well lit photo. The mountain overlooking Ouray is readily visible from town, but this shot was taken outside of town and shows more of the mountain. With more snow it would look much better, but you would not get the color in the foreground. The remainder of the photos fairly depict Ouray at night when the streets are not crowded with pedestrians. The River's Edge Lodge is where we stayed; It is quite comfortable and convenient. Box Canyon is just one of the many attractions of Ouray. I hope you enjoy.

Those are excellent images. I figure you used a small lens opening because of the star effect. No. 7 aroused my curiosity. It was a night shot but I see plenty of light especially in those two trees. Fill in light perhaps?
It called my attention the absence of cars and people on the streets at night but that is not unusual for small towns or villages.

All in all it is a great set of photographs.

A very well shot series - terrific lighting. I'd suggest doing some straightening in the third image to correct for the left side leaning into the frame.

It was taken outside of Ouray in route to Durango. I am not sure where exactly. I thought it was an attractive mountain and just kept looking for places to get a photo.


Thanks for the info Dan! I will have to keep an eye out for that vantage point next time we are out there! Great captures!

I absolutely love your Ouray, Colorado pictures. I lived there from 1938 to 1946 and it was heaven for a young girl with the lovely snow in winter and hot springs pool in summer.

Thanks for the wonderful Photos 0f Ouray. I really enjoyed the shots,
My memory has faded from there since time had passed of over 50 years ago when I was there about the time of John Wayne movie time.
