The Green Monarchs from Hope - a photo on Flickriver

The Green Monarchs from Hope

            “There is a serene and settled majesty to woodland scenery that enters into the soul and delights and elevates it, and fills it with noble inclinations.”   - Washington Irving

My sisters Laurie and Marianne, and my canine pal Pita spent Sunday of the Presidents' Day weekend in the Hope/ClarkFork area of North Idaho looking for fresh subjects to photograph and get us out of the winter doldrums. We were not disappointed.  We started down at the drift yard on the eastern end of Lake Pend Oreille where the Clark Fork River feeds into the lake.  The scene above is taken from the Hope Cemetery Road above the Lake. The mountains depicted are the Green Monarchs. They drop dramatically into the lake. We were lucky to catch the lighting of the late afternoon sun as clouds were just starting to drift in.  This is just one of many fun shots I was able to capture on our outing.  More will come over the next few days.  

Thank you for your visits and comments and have a wonderful day.
