Moonlighting
After reading about Jack's, Jody's, and Kane's mountain adventures, I feel like a wimp mentioning that I had to hold my tripod down (wind) and couldn't actually see Long's Peak while shooting this. The moon light on the clouds was just too nice to ignore though.

Very cool! Where did you take this from Paul?

I like the stars in the upper left. Very nice.

I had the same thought, Todd! Too funny.
It gets wimpier, Erik. This was a roadside shot from Rt 7, near the pond that got fenced off.

I really like that glow on the clouds and the stars are a very nice touch. Well done.

My wife loved that show and I wanted to punch Bruce Willis in the mouth. Then he made Diehard and then I liked him after that.

Really like the mood and lighting in this one. Good timing too. I'm sure getting the wind and clouds to cooperate to get the mountain peeking through wasn't easy.

It's been said, but the mood and the stars really make this image for me.

I hate to admit this, but at first I thought the stars were dust bunnies! :redface: Anyway, very nice!
