Here's a Fuji F30 "snapshot" of the sunset over the Sneffels Range this (Tuesday) evening. An hour or so earlier I saw enormous billowy clouds with clear skies to the west, so I went up to a favorite vantage point to check out the sunset.
The coolest part was that the lightning was booming in Ouray and the Sneffels Range... unfortunately I wasn't able to catch any of that (maybe if I'm really lucky one of my 4x5 shots caught a bolt - but I doubt it).
Tomorrow I'm off on a 7-day trek through the Needles Range... I'm excited!

Looks pretty ominous! Choice conditions though. Have fun in the Needles! Lucky!

Those are some very powrful, unusual clouds, Jack. I look forward to seeing what you bring back from the Weminuche.

Looks like an aerial shot.
Yeah, I am looking forward to seeing your catch from next week. Have a good light.
