Great!

I attempted to take a very similar picture from that spot, but it didn't turn out nearly as well. Well done!

Re: Great!

Thanks for the comment! It's all just lucky timing. I had been there a couple times before and wasn't as successful either.

Thanks

Thanks for the compliment! We really just had good timing. Due to possible bad weather and a long route on tap for that day, we decided not to spend too much time taking photos on the ascent. That was my "2 second photo" from the pass -- just happened to work out well.

What a soft

textured photo and image from a dream. Just the right conditions, with the sun partly obscured by clouds? Nice shot, I really like the feel of this photo! Take care.

Re: What a soft

Larry,
Thanks for the kind feedback. It was a somewhat cloudy day at sunrise when that photo was taken. We still had ~12 miles to go that day and were worried about the notorious Colorado storms firing up early.
