	Hasn't voted	Thank you! I appreciate the comment, and you have submitted so many superb sunsets of your own. I was out taking shots of the sunset over the lake, and it seemed the show was over... went down to sit by the tent and 5-10 minutes later this appeared. Had to get back up, and it only lasted 3-4 minutes, but it was worth it.

	Hasn't voted	Thanks for looking Mountainfriend. That evening, and the climb in the morning, really made the weekend worthwhile. Bad weather forecasts can yield good results!

This is a really beautiful shot. It grabs you like you are at that place at that moment.

	Hasn't voted	I was lucky to have the moment too. I camped there two nights, and considered moving the second night to a nearby location just for a new view. In the end my sloth paid out and I stayed put. Thanks Roy. Chad

This wonderful image almost appears to be in a tropical setting with a giant palm tree in upper right.

	Hasn't voted	Haha... I see what you're saying, but I was bundled up in all of my fleece at the time, surrounded by ice pellets from the hailstorm...
