Here's a few shots of Pikes Peak from this morning. I never get tired of seeing/shooting Pikes above the clouds.

This one's a two-horizontal-image stitch.
CLICK FOR 800x2000-PIXEL VERSION

And one more, a relatively rare (for me) vertical image.

All are gorgeous. Pikes Peak is a fantastic mountain. From where were these taken?

Great shots Todd. Love those clouds.

Todd these are really nice...love the clouds in there. The second one I like quite a bit, only comment might be to consider cropping or cloning out that little bit of tree showing through on the bottom right to balance out the image a bit more, otherwise really cool image! The last one is also very cool with the layers from the grass up to the mountains. Well done!!

Nice, I like the red wall contrast with the pretty mountain. The warm color of the grass is coool too - didn't know you could turn a Canon sideways. :biggrin:

Second one is amazing Todd.

Nicely done! The third is my favorite...

That vertical stitch is very cool. Nice layers.

These are all really nice, that cloud layer is awesome. I like the distinct layers to #3, but all are equally good!.
Posted by Don Grall on May 26, 2010 at 8:50 PM
Like all of them, but #3 is my favorite because it was taken about 800 feet above my house.

Great photos, especially the first one. Thanks for sharing. :smile:

Great Shots Todd..#3 is by far my favorite.

Sweet, 2 & 3 are fantastic! glad you got out there.

nice series Todd. I agree with Koveh on that 2nd one...crop the tree on the right and you've got a winner for sure! :toast:

Great shots Todd! You are lucky that you don't have beetle kill to contend with. Trees look nice and Green unlike Summit County.

Great work, Todd. Like #1 and 2 best.

All of those are winners! You are killin' it as of late!
Posted by Charles Caudle on May 28, 2010 at 12:23 AM
I love that last one!
Posted by Doug Koepsel on May 28, 2010 at 12:43 AM
The detail shown by the larger version of #2 looks very good. The separating cloud layer adds plenty to the image.

nice series, I like the composition of the vertical one.
