Although it seems the goal of most landscape photographers (me included) is to make images of grand vistas which reflect what one sees before you, highlighting the light and clarity of what the camera will capture, I am drawn more and more to what may be considered abstracts found in nature.

The series "Maroon Bells Reflections" is a prime example. The reflections of the mountains and aspen groves on Maroon Lake appear to be more painterly, than a photograph.
