Lake Pueblo Erupts

I was jogging near Pueblo Res. yesterday, and immediately realized that the clearing storms moving to the east would likely produce an outstanding sunset. So, i finished my run and grabbed my camera, then drove to the lakeshore. Here's the scene as i arrived.

The reds started appearing shortly before sunset.

This is post-peak. I only had a minute or two to compose for peak color, scrimmaging through the mud, will post the best color on ESS shortly.

I was watching the show from home last night, wishing I could get to somewhere that would work, but knowing it was too late. Glad you caught it. I like the second shot due to the great color on the lake surface.

Great color. I actually like the mix of colors in the last one best.

Too bad there are no shots of the dedicated photographer & tripod knee deep in mud.

Oh my....awesome color! I really like the last one.

Great captures. # 3 is truly powerful.

I knew i forgot something! next time...

Great job. The color and three dimensional effect in #3 is stunning!

#3 gets my vote. That's some great color and the reflections really work.

I agree with the majority mumero 3 is my fave, but I also give #1 a thumbs up too

Those are some sweet shots and #3 is a real stunner.

I like the comp in #3 best, but prefer the light/colors in #2. Thanks for sharing.

Great shots, Stan. Another vote for #3.

Great color - the last one is really nice with the foliage FG and color in the water!

I agree - the color on #3 is fantastic! Great Shots!

Really like the 3rd shot as well, good job!

Stan, I think your #3 here is better than your ESS post. The color is great on the ESS post, but #3 is just a beautiful image. Nice work.

Great images! Really likje the clouds and color in the third image.

wow number 3 all the way, that is incredible.....

Yup, #3 does it for me too. Well worth the mudding!

Insane sunset!!! I like the comp in #3 the best.
