    Photobucket seems to compress my images and make them look darker than they really are. Imagine these but bumped up like half a stop.

    Very nice photos there. I like #2 the best because of the leading line of the road which gives the photo a lot of character and interest.

    I agree, #2 is the most interesting composition because of the road leading the viewer into the scene.

    I like the scenery, it reminds me of Kananaskis country, up on this side of the border.

    The blue of the sky in #2 and #3 looks too saturated.
    Pity that the sky is burnt out in the last two shots... You should try an exposure blending from bracketed images to have a well-exposed photo.
    Nice sceneries though

    I wish you would give us a lens and camera settings when posting pic, but they look great
    I know you have dreams, my question is what are you going to do about them.

    beautiful pics. the focal point of # 1 is wisely not centered, # 2 utilizes the s-curve effect of the road and the last one uses the water to lead over to the mountain side. It is a really good.

    The second photo is absolutely stunning. The road leads your eye nicely through the photo and the yellow color of the ground contrast beautifully with the vivid blue sky.

    These are great, isn't Montana a country all it's own?
