The areas in and around TinCup provide an abundance of opportunities for a landscape photographer. From the many lakes and streams to the majestic mountain views, one is never at a loss for something to shoot. All that is necessary is to keep one's eyes open and a camera at the ready.

And the beauty of nature holds many lessons to be learned. In the words of John Muir: "Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares drop will drop off like autumn leaves."

Enjoy!
