Rock, Clouds
Epic afternoon up on Pikes Peak yesterday. Probably should've stayed til they kicked me out, since the light was only getting better, but oh well. Just a couple of quickies.

Epic, indeed. I think I definitely would have stayed until they booted me.

Oooh, that 1st one is dyno-mite! If you hadn't said it was Pikes Peak, I never would have guessed it. I saw the clouds from Woodland Park, but I was busy rescreening a large screen at my rental house.

I really like the mix of clouds and light, Todd.

The first one really stands out for me - those dynamic clouds and the lighting make for a quite interesting image.

Todd, these shots are inspiring to say the least. Nature at it's rawest with everything unneeded stripped away. True art. These type of shots are why I love your book, 14000 Feet, so much.

Nice work here. The first is very nice!

Very dramatic. Really like the light and cloud mix.

Man, I would have camped out there and I don't camp! :frown:

I love the first one with the amazingly well detailed dynamic range. :jump: :jump:

Good job, Todd.

Good grief Todd--if they came to boot you, you could just tell them:
"Apparently you DO NOT know to who'm you are speaking...I am TODD CAUDLE...what part of that do you NOT UNDERSTAND??" :biggrin: :wink:
nice shots BTW...
