A little different setting
Don't see too many boat shots in Colorado. Took this at sunset Sunday night by the edge of Lake Granby. We had been in Wyoming all day and no clouds there so we headed back and boy I'm glad we did.

NICE. Best Lake Granby shot I've ever seen for sure. I wondered if this was the Caribbean at first before seeing the snow in the distant mountains. No nits about this image!

Wow, the color in this is fantastic! Not sure anyone would have guessed it was Granby...at least I wouldn't have.

Wow, unbelievable clouds and color! Great shot, Jack. I've never been to Lake Granby but I'm guessing this is as pretty as it gets.

Great capture! The colors are outstanding. Who would have ever guessed Colorado!

Well that is just fairly amazing, Jack! Phenomenal sky, and the boats are a nice touch.

Who knew Lake Granby could be so photogenic? Way to work the scene Jack and awesome colors!

Nice compositional use of the boats for FG interest and perspective with the thunderstorm lit up in the BG.

Awesome sunset! It's cool to see a Colorado scene with sailboats in it!

Wow - the colors are amazing. It feels like we are sitting on the bank looking across the lake - what a great image!

Wow! The clouds and colors here are amazing. Nice catch!

Jack, wonderful colors in the sky combined with the softness of the lake and the pattern of the boats make for a great composition. Will look great on a wall. Bring it to Denver Digital.

Explosive color and the boats are a great idea for this scene!

Great G11 shot Jack, although it's a bit dark. I still haven't gotten around to editing my shot from there, and I still have 3 days of Glacier National Park editing to get through.
