I've been very uninspired recently. Many issues have colluded to dampen my spirit and creativity. In an effort to break out of my doldrums, I took a drive up north to a wildlife area in Skagit County, about 60 miles north of Seattle. I saw some ducks and eagles for sure. But the intense greens behind magenta wildflowers of the landscapes really caught my eye. And the sky was interesting. So here are a few of those shots, admittedly fairly heavily processed in ACR and Photoshop CC. These were all single shots but I did process the sky separately from the land. Taken with a Nikon D810 with a Tamron 24x70mm, f/2.8 lens. Your thoughts/comments are always welcome. Thanks for taking a look.
Cool. Looks like a great place to visit. Mosquitoes ?

Thank you. No mosquitoes to report during this mid-afternoon walk.
They may be a little over processed but they are very nice.

Love these images! Put me on mind of the glacial lakes found hereabouts in eastern SD and western MN!

Thank you my friends. I appreciate all the comments.
Beautiful work saxman!!! Any one of these would make for a great large print.
Hope circumstances change for the better soon.
