Cinder Cone
This was the only sunriset shot I got with any clouds in it on my last trip to Bend. I like it, but I wanted to get some opinions on it.

I've never seen a lenticular on Black Butte. That's interesting. I love the warm glow on the forest and hazey valley layer too. Very nice!

I agree the red glow on the trees is really sweet. Man, you and your lenticular clouds !! Nice catch.

Those lenticulars do seem to follow you around.

Zack,
This probably is my favorite place to visit on Earth. I go to the Black Butte area at least twice a yer. It is hard to photograph but I think you found a great vantage point with this shot. Thanks for posting it. :toast:

Nice! I like the warm lighting on the trees very much..

Zack,
Nice image...but I think it's fairly flat feeling and with a little more zip in the contrast and colors, it will be stronger...and not to rip this, but the comp isn't totally powerful. As John says, this would be an overall nice stock image.
