Sawtooth Mountains of Idaho

Wind flowers at remote lake in the Sawtoot Mountains

This is a remote lake with no name the I could find. It is just over the ridge from Sawtooth lake. I was surprised at the number of wild flowers around the lake and through the forest. It was a little cooler and moister than the other terrain I had been through that day, perhaps that is the reason. I shot this with a tilt shift lens to get everything in focus. It is also a 5 shot HDR to get a better balance of light from the wild flowers in the shadows and the bright peak in the background.
