Well it *must* be love if you climb *that* to get hitched!!! That first one was a cool incidental capture Stan :toast: As usual, you make it imposssible to pick a favorite, but the color and light on the last one creates a Pavlovian response! Um...isn't #3 showing the "Stan R doing a headstand" formation??? What mts. you heading to?

I like the comp and colors in #1 the best. I know what ya mean about the dust. I have the same problem
Posted by John Mumaw on July 29, 2011 at 10:18 PM
Actually, you had some awesome light!
#'s 2, 4 & 8 are excellent. Love how the rainbow parallels the monolith!

Everything positive has already been said...Marvelous color.

Pam--you aint kidding, one false step and it truly would have been 'til death do us part!' :biggrin:
I'm gonna head to whichever mts have the best flowers! :wink:
thanks, folks!

Man, I like that comp in the first one, and the last one deserves an Oh, Mommy!

Great series Stan!!! Again, hard to pick fans for me, but I think 2,3 and 4 are it for me, but don't ask me which one I like best, because to is a tie with those three for my tastes. Again...really nice series!
