And your warmest jacket. LOL! It is cold and windy up there. Sometimes, if we go to the area in May, we find it still frozen and still snowy.

Durango....I was there in 1980 and thought $20 or $25 was too much to take The Durango-Silverton Steam Train ride. Have regretted it ever since.

All he caught there were the 9-12 inch stockers. No salmon. The
last time I saw salmon in Colorado was in the early 90s; some small
things in lakes around Durango, Colorado.

What a neat place....Were these near a roadside? If not, looks like a tough hike...I also use an R1...Have you noticed in some situations greens are a bit "strong"? If so how do you post to ease up the greens in the few conditions that show that? Bob

That's not as bad as not taking it because it wouldn't stop to let you fish. Yep! We didn't take it because we didn't want to waste a day without fishing.

BTW, I remembered the small salmon I was talking about. It's Kokanee Salmon.

Bob, Indeed this was roadside shooting. No hiking for me. For fishing there is a road that takes you close to the reservoir. This year the water was high but in years past, with low water, just hiking up the rocks to your car from your fishing spot was enough to take your breath away.

With the R1 I take my images in raw. When converting I have found once or twice that I had to dial down the saturation, but overall I don't have that big of a problem with the greens that I have captured up to now. I bought the camera only a few days before my Colorado trip though, so I haven't had that much experience with it.

Excellent, Olga!
