Did any Front Range folks witness this tonight?
I took the dogs for a walk around 5:30 and I took the Lumix LX3 along, and I'm glad I did. Anyone else see these amazing clouds tonight?

Taken at Berkeley Lake, Denver, @ I-70 and Sheridan.
LX3 Raw Manual Mode ~ f/7.1 ~ 1/60sec ~ ISO 80 ~ 16:9 aspect ratio

I saw the clouds before sunset and knew it was going to be a nice sunset, I was thinking of grabbing my camera and going out to the lake by my place, but when I sat down I totally forgot about it so I missed it

Yes I saw the clouds, but the wife fell ill with the flu this evening.:frown: I was playing nurse maid and dealing with kids. Sure would have been nice to have been out taking a few pics.

There were some good ones up here in Lyons, but I wasn't out shooting. Just looking.

I posted a couple from tonight too, from your location though you had a bit more colour!. Really nice with the lake and reflections!.

Ooh, those are nice! I guess I should have looked out my window this evening.

Wonderful shots. Looks like you found the perfect place to be. We didn't have any lenticulars this far south. :frown:
