Late afternoon capture on a day we'd been out just admiring the fall foliage and gorgeous scenery, highlighted by pockets of thunderstorms in northern New Mexico. Some days you just get lucky.

    If I hadn't lived in NM I would think this is a photochop, but I've been there and the sky is amazing. Very nice shot.

    Thanks for the kind words all.

    Yes, it is an HDR image, from 7 exposures.

    Loud Al, I agree. If one didn't know first hand, southwestern skies can look fake. I'm finding HDR to be a great tool for digital landscapes, especially when it comes to sky.
