Today’s Photos
Photo 21-1
From reader Nicole Dunn: “Lake Irwin, Colorado, in the early morning. Such a great memory: lots of fish, paddling around, and generally enjoying the outdoors.”
Photo 21-2
From reader Robert Thompson: “Caught this guy on my fifth wheel awning one morning while in the process of rolling up my awning prior to departing the campground.”
Photo 21-3
From reader Frank Teale: “Crystal mine in Colorado. Up a 6-mile rugged 4-wheel road.”
Photo 21-4
From reader Jim Pullen: “The end of a perfect day.”
Photos 21-5
From reader Mike Howe: “Top of the morning at Apalachicola Bay, on the western panhandle, Florida. This was late March 2022, when Leone and I were headed home to a cold northern state. Wished we would have stayed longer at the campground but, alas, it was all filled up.”
Very hard to decide. Except for one I could have voted for any of the four others.
Agree most of the photos are nice.
Photo 21-3 is not a mine, it’s a water-powered mill for a mine. The mined ore was brought down from a mine high above on the mountain, then crushed and separated from the waste rock at the mill.
Photo 21-3 is also one of the most photographed mills. You can find pictures of it almost any where.
It’s supposedly the most photographed place in Colorado.
I submitted the same pic for this contest. At first I thought it was my photo. The best part of getting this photo is getting there. The 2nd best part is stopping at Slo Grooving BBQ in Marble on the way out.
While most all of the photos in this semi-weekly contest are quite good, there always seems to be one in each group that just demands I look at it more than once. In this group the mill picture did that for me, but I have to say the frog was also an exceptional picture and highlights the “unusual” things that many times make up our RVing experiences. Kudos to Robert Thompson for a vivid and unique photograph!
While I am sure I have long ago forgotten many beautiful landscapes I’ve seen, I will never forget the Peregrin Falcon sitting on top of my pickup camper ladder one morning. It did not seem to be concerned about me at all moving around close by. That was nearly 40 years ago and the memory is still vivid.
I loved the frog, too. It’s usually the animals that speak to me the most, but for some reason I was also drawn to the beach at the end of a perfect day because of the perspective from which the picture was taken.
My goodness what a hard choice in those photos . They all were so good… tough tough decision.
IMHO I think for a photo contest of this nature, it should be required that you can tell the photo is from an RV or about RV’ing. Even if it’s only the shadow of an awning (for example). These are beautiful photographs but have no reference to RV’ing. Now that would be a photo contest, RELATED to RV’ing. Not just another photo contest. Or better yet have both categories. Perhaps “this week only photo’s with RVs” once a month.
I Agree!
I agree.
