With rain showers moving in and out yesterday, I thought the sun might but on a good show at sunset. Never did see the sun but the clouds and valley fog made up for that.

They are both excellent, but I really like the way the clouds are flowing over the ridges in the second.

They are beautiful...I really like the second shot, I could see the poster size, and hanging somewhere!

1 is great, but I like 2 even more.

I've never seen a shot like 2 before, with those sweet blues.

Great stuff, Thomas.

Why they call them the Blue Ridge Mountains

Very nice and I agree those are some awesome blues.

That 2nd image drives home the point that it is worth hanging around a bit after sunset! Was this ISO50?

That twilight image is extremely compelling, Tom.
