blairwacha August 04, 2013
Thank you all for the kind compliments! Mostly I was lucky. As landscape photographers, we dream of the perfect clouds that "make" the shot, but it's a rare occasion we get them. I got more than I could have asked for in this one. Spending a great deal of time in the field early in the morning and late into the evening certainly pays off once in a while.

Thank you all again,
Blair

BIG CONGRATS on your well deserved Feature! There is no denying that this is a first class winning landscape shot. It has all of the great elements of a beautiful piece of artwork. You dont get enough recognition on here for your great work, but they are all winners in my book. Speaking of which when will you be releasing your tabletop book "exploring colorado"? I want a signed copy! =D
