Late Summer and early Autumn in Rocky Mountain National Park is a special time of the year. Visitors come from all over the world to enjoy the fall colors and the beautiful weather.

Gear Used to Photograph Notchtop Mountain and Lake Helene at Rocky Mountain National Park

The following camera gear was used in the Colorado Landscape Photos of Rocky Mountain National Park:

  • a Nikon D810,
  • a Nikkor 14-24mm, f/2.8,
  • a Nikkor 24-70mm, f/2.8,
  • a Gitzo CF6X Mountaineer 2 tripod (GT2530),
  • with a Really Right Stuff BH-40 LR Ballhead,

The 6:45am morning exposures for the Notchtop Mountain and Lake Helene images averaged between 1/6 of a second and 2.5 seconds at f/11 and ISO of 64. The later morning photos of Odessa Gorge & Odessa Lake used a faster shutter and the same aperture of 1/25 of a second at F/11. The Notchtop Mountain and Lake Helene images were taken with the Nikkor 14-24mm lens. The Odessa Gorge images were photographed using the Nikkor 14-24, f/2.8 lenses. Some of the images were created by combining 5-7 exposures at one full stop apart in order to capture the high dynamic range of the early morning sunrise.
