Over the Ridge

Taken on a day hike with my family yesterday. They limited my photography to minimal snaps along the way and even so I was perpetually having to run to catch up with them. I suppose that's the photographer's lot. On the bright side, I sure got my exercise!

Thank you for visiting my album. I appreciate the time you take to view and comment.
Beautiful vista! Wow!

Beautiful view, Lisa!

It's hard to take time for yourself when you have a family - those snatched moments are precious. Now we are 'empty nesters' and my hubby is very patient. My son is also into photography - it's fun when he is in town and we go take pics together. :-)

What a scene! It's a great place to hike and photograph.

fabulous views

I know the feelings of trying to catch up with the fellow walkers. It is very hard to concentrate. Maybe we just have to give photography a rest when there is a good accompany. Nice view and weather in the shot.

How beautiful!

Love the colours and composition here and know exactly what you mean about stopping to take photos when out with others!!!

beautiful!

Beautiful! Love the tantalizing glimpse of the view over the hill.

I know how difficult it is to get shots you're happy with when you're out and about with other folks, reckon you did OK here. ;-)
This is lovely, it looks almost as if you're on the edge of the world and there's a great sense of space and distance to it.

Beautiful and what a view from up there!
July 8th, 2013  
I like the tree providing a natural frame on the left of the picture so the viewer is directed to the mountains. Nice composition.

Beautiful view
July 8th, 2013  
What a view!
I know exactly where you're coming from in terms of being left behind whilst taking shots!
July 8th, 2013  
Lovely beautiful view! Love the shadow across the path!
July 8th, 2013  
It looks a beautiful place for a hike Lisa. My shots are divided into two - the ones I take when out by myself, thinking about carefully and taking them from different angles, and the ones where I feel I have to hurry up so I don't annoy those I'm with at the time.
July 8th, 2013  
Very beautiful place to visit. And looks like you are in a high elevation. Love the whole scene!
July 8th, 2013  
Nice pov and perspective!
July 8th, 2013  
Lovely view. I like how you've framed the shot with the tree.
July 8th, 2013  
What a beautiful shot--Looks like you definitely had quite the hike!!!
July 8th, 2013  
You have described me on every outing we have now :o) What a fabulous view. Looks like a lovely day xx
July 8th, 2013  
Very beautiful view - it can get frustrating getting the shots you want when you're with people can't it. My family's very patient but I never want to push it
July 8th, 2013  
THIS IS GORGEOUS!! love it!!! it has to be another fav for me!! :) beautiful! where did you take this!?
July 8th, 2013  
A beautiful landscape shot, well composed!
July 8th, 2013  
wow, what a view, lovely shot
July 8th, 2013  
@camim Thank you so much, Camila. So happy you like it. This was taken at a ski resort about 20 miles outside of Boise. The chair lifts are idle this time of year, but people still like to go mountain biking and hiking on the trails.

What a fabulous view! gorgeous shot :)

Fablous POV Lisa, love those clouds peeking out from the tree. fav
July 8th, 2013

Beautiful!

Amy
great shot, love the framing
July 9th, 2013  
Lisa, I can SOOOOO relate to trailing behind my family whenever we're walking outdoors somewhere and I have my camera. I absolutely love this composition - the way you framed it with the tree, the depth and layers of beauty. Wonderful!
July 9th, 2013  
What an incredible view. Lovely shot Lisa, worth the hike!
July 9th, 2013  
Great composition. Fantastic perspective where the background is at a lower level than the one of the foreground.
July 9th, 2013  
Looks like a gorgeous hiking trail! Hope to do some out in BC later in the week! As Kareen said I can relate!! I was half a mile behind everyone on the beach walk last week! haha
July 9th, 2013  
Great spot! I love this!
July 9th, 2013  
Very pretty! I was sort of laughing though- I was thinking that you should just pick out a good spot that would keep you busily shooting and wait for them to come on the way back to the car to go home!
July 9th, 2013  
Oh my gosh, I am always trying to catch up too... they are so impatient! lol Beautiful landscape composition, as always Lisa!
July 9th, 2013  
So beautiful! I can relate to that...its hard to keep up with the fam on a walk when you see all this beautiful stuff to snap away at! I always get left behind!
July 9th, 2013  
Beautiful!
July 9th, 2013  
Fantastic view. Great framing!
July 9th, 2013  
I really want to walk around that corner. Great composition - it really pulls you in.
July 9th, 2013
