Location Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado, USA
$550.00
This is an experience gift voucher. The recipient will book the experience after they redeem the gift voucher.

Overview

Hike to some of the most stunning mountain lakes on the planet for a memorable sunrise. I will show you great locations for setting up for fantastic photos of Dream and Emerald Lakes (and if we have time, Nymph Lake as well).

I offer suggestions for photo composition as we go, and can also offer photo instruction on camera settings for those that would like some pointers.

Don't have a RMNP entrance reservation? No need! My commercial use permit means you don't need a timed entry permit if you are with me!
