Awesome! I never would have guessed GOG, i thought it was Yosemite at first. You should show this to our own Master of the G.O.G, Todd Caudle, i bet he'd appreciate this.

Outstanding Bill, love everything about this, wouldn't change a thing..
Great piece of art, and who doesn't like blue & gold :smile:
I looked at the LP very closely to see if you combined this image..If you did, you did it in expert fashion. One point off for that sensor spot bottom above the 2009, sorry :wink:
Well done :toast:

Bill, beautiful photo. I love all the different shades of orange in the rock and the contrasting blue sky. But what I like the most is that there is no bottom and no top which gives it an abstract look.

I recognize that rock face!

Simply beautiful and it reminds me I need to get back to GOG soon.

The colors complement each other well here Bill, and that moon makes a great counterpoint to the scene. Simple and wonderful.

Bill, Great shot! I use to live less than a mile from G.O.G. Brings back lots of good memories! I LOVE IT, and agree with Howard, "wouldn't change a thing!"

Great image! This brings back nice memories for me as well, having lived in Colorado Springs from late 1993 until late 1997, and having spent countless enjoyable hours in GOG. I have an old photo of the October full moon over Kissing Camels in the morning. Thanks for posting.

Wonderful image Bill. Besides liking the combination of Blue and orange, I like the well exposed moon. Beautiful!
