OT: Not Rocky Mountains...but close
I ditched...er...was allowed by the family to spend the afternoon shooting in Badlands National Park. Harsh light, cloudless blue skies (until a big bank of clouds rolled in from the west about 30 minutes before sunset..grrrr) but it was good times anyway. Got a few useable images. I need to road trip up here when the sun is lower in the sky.

From Sheep Mountain Table just before the clouds rolled in

Looks like compression virtually destroyed these. Here are links to larger files.

Bummer about the harsh light on the first one, but you more than made up for it in that second one. Awesome!

Nice images, despite the harsh lighting in the first one.

That second one rocks! Great depth and the comp is excellent.
