Outstanding images so far. Here is my contribution - something a little off the beaten track.

Hey Jameel, great work here! I have actually shot that area also. I always liked the S curves going on, and just finding any water in DV is usually such a novelty it was fun to shoot. Glad to see I am not the only one who liked that area.

On my way to Yosemite in 2016, I hit the superbloom, too. I was heading to Ashford Mill (where reports had the greatest density), but the sun was sinking as I passed the southern egress to the West Side Road. I pulled over & jumped out with my gear. After spending so much time in Iceland, it felt very strange to be out shooting comfortably in just blue jeans, aloha shirt & shoes! No howling wind or rain.... just warm and dry.

Hey Monika, Love those flowers!

I bet the difference had to be kind of mind boggling to go from Iceland to Hotland... :)

PS. you have something in the lower right corner.

Thanks, Jim for pointing out the LRC blob. That happens with the "not a keeper" files...

Great thread with some outstanding pictures so far. Since I didn't see a rule to post only one I've taken the liberty of contributing a few of my favorites from my only visit a couple years ago.

Nice Jim. I always have liked Artists Palette as the colors there are just so varied! You got some nice color in the rocks in the last shot too.

Artist’s Pallet is a difficult place to get a good composition, Jim. You did a wonderful job. The colors are great too.
