Title: Blue Mesa Reservior
Post by: MattBurt on October 18, 2018, 01:56:01 pm

They need water downstream and we didn't get much snow last year so the levels are very low.
The big meadow below is usually all lake with no flowing river visible. I guess this is more how it used to be before the dam.
Hoping for big snow this year!

Very well balanced between shadows and highlights for HDR photos.

Well done .

Thanks. That is my goal when I use HDR. I don't want anyone to look and think "oh look, an HDR image." :)
