    BeemerChef,
    You should post more often, this is great stuff.

    I enjoyed each shot, particularly the cloud shots. Looks quite
    dramatic. I liked that you included a bit of the ground to anchor your
    shots.

    Thanks for posting.

    I like the first and love the second and third! Those clouds are incredibly dramatic and you have captured them well. Please continue to share with us.

    Hi Ara -

    Glad to hear you are well and still traveling with Spirit! This is an excellent series. You really should post more often. I just visited your site and browsed through the Valley of Fire gallery--some terrific images! Look me up if you pass through San Antonio.

    Cheers,
    Lauren

    You should post more often, BeemerChef. My favorites are #2 and #3; those clouds over Ennis are wild.

    Thank you all, I have to admit that the "human" communication on photos such as above "is" nice... Yes, I should do this more often as I do admire eveyone else's photography.
    We had a good time parked New Year's in San Antonio! Camera in hand it was fun (Spirit does not think so... but that's OK!... only this time).
    We will probably go through again sometime this winter.

    The second grabs my eye for the light and the colour in the cloud. The second is a 'wow' for the height and magnificence of the sky and cloud. Real dramaclap.gif

    Wow! Nice shot of the carriage lights at Christmas--I love the light trails! I was able to grab a few nice shots of the lights on the Riverwalk--and got some ideas for this year. Be sure to look me up!

    You've already done a lot. No Photoshop needed.

    Good shots! And they capture the Big Sky of Montana very well.
