I Could Never Call the Places in the US and Canada a Bucket List - stock photo

I Could Never Call the Places in the US and Canada a Bucket ListThey are simply quite beautiful and must be visited many timesA season changes and a perspective is brought anew with each travelWhile my camera can capture that moment in time,When I see it again, I want to go back...and perhaps a few times at that!For when my imagination and feet have reached out to touch a mountainOr felt my hand brush across the swaying movements of grassy fieldsI am caught up in the moment and have to relive them all.For you see, there can never be a bucket list for me!Another work of short poetry or prose to complement the image captured one late mooning while walking Wonder Lake Trail with a few to the namesake lake and the peaks of Denali and the Alaska Range in Denali National Park & Preserve. The image captured is a view looking to the southeast across autumn colors present in some nearby tundra to waters of Wonder Lake with Denali and snowcapped peaks of the Alaska Range. While I did have some height over the setting, I still decided to angle my Nikon SLR camera slightly downward to capture a more sweeping view across this part of the national park. I did some initial post-processing work making adjustments to contrast, brightness and saturation while playing around as I learned how to work with DxO PhotoLab 3 that I’d recently purchased after moving away from Capture NX2. I then exported a TIFF image to Nik Color Efex Pro 4 where I added a Polarization and Pro Contrast filter for that last effect on the image captured.
