Winter at Lake Como, Darby, Montana

Getting off work earlier these days, I used the extra daylight hour to speed South to Lake Como, near Darby, Montana - not the version in Italy.  It was so peaceful & starkly beautiful.  I'll finish out the week with shots of the lake.

After parking at the boat ramp, I walked down toward the water, where the lacy edge caught my eye.

It's an intimate contrast to the recent Big Sky majesty a la Ivan Doig.

Elbow Room, Glacier National Park, Montana

“Benchland and tableland countless times larger than the jumbled ridge behind us, elbow room for the spirit.”
- Ivan Doig, “Dancing At the Rascal Fair”, p. 47
