Another RMNP sunrise
Here's another sunrise from Trail Ridge this morning. It wasn't as windy as last week, so I was able to use a 300mm with some success. Not a lot of color here, but I'm always really intrigued by being able to look right at the sun.

Excellent comp with the layers and tones and a great look at the sun. Very well done, Paul!

Man, I'm hatin' you right now, Paul. (not really) I was up there this morning, but figured nothing would happen, so I headed back down. Seeing this, I should've STAYED! It's pretty much the shot I was after.

this looks surreal Paul. I love the layered cloud look.

Thanks guys. Todd, we probably passed each other on the road. I wish I knew what everyone's vehicles look like.

That is Sweet Paul! Love the layers and the the clouds partially covering the sun, nice work on the exposure.
