Pretty Views

For Scenic Weekends and Orange Friday, here are a couple more photos from Garden of the Gods, this time focusing on wider views.
The next one has Pikes Peak in the background - the mountain looks much larger but the photo was taken with a wide-angle lens.
It's hard to believe this is a city park. I need to get some photos here next time it snows.

    Love so much the photos of Garden of the Gods! Pikes Peak in the background is gorgeous too.

    I am glad your daughter was at home a couple of weeks ago. It's really lovely.

    Hope you have a good Sunday.

    That red soil (rocks ?) is fantastic. It reminds me of Australia or even Africa. Amazing!

    Hi Al, Would love to see Garden of the Gods when it snows! Love those rock formations. I'm sending some snow your way as per your request. Do you want the wind, too?
