Approaching dusk at Rocky Mountain National Park

My last photograph before leaving Bear Lake Trail, in Colorado’s Rocky Mountain National Park. Dusk was looming and the light tinged the mountain peaks before sinking behind the range. I loved the layers and textures in front of me and how the reflection in the lake began to mirror the glow.
