So, as we were driving from the Mexican food restaurant in New Mexico into Colorado, this was my greeting and it took my breath away. We'll be in Colorado for the next few posts so I hope you enjoy them. As always, thanks for coming by to take a peek. Anita

COME PLAY OUR TRIVIA GAME!
Triviathread
One of the things I did love about living in the West were the wide open skies and how you could seem to see for miles and miles. This stunner of a sky is lit by the clouds drifting around it, and the contrast is stark...a lovely shade of blue it is..As to the foreground formation...since I now live in the woods... it's always interesting to me to be reminded of how stark and dry the West is and how dramatic the landscape is in its presentation. The different stratas are so clear, and yet you can see where some of it has crumbled over time and is eroding back down to ground level. I can't tell exactly how big this is on the computer I'm on right now because I can't blow this up to a decent size, but it looks like it's fairly large judging from the size of the greenery that surrounds the bottom. If they're full-sized trees, this is a colossus...perhaps they're only shrubs, but they certainly serve to accent the sand stone colors. The compostion is nicely done with just the right amount of sky and earth, and your angle is very interesting in the way you've placed the formation on almost a diagonal in this most pleasing post. Thanks :)PJ

A beautiful capture Anita ... this is just breathtaking. I agree that it looks like Noah's Ark came to rest there ... this is just grand with that gorgeous sky & rock textures. Thank you for sharing.

Lovely, Anita. The terrain is very dramatic. Did you intensify the cyan in this shot or was the bluish tinge the result of the time of day?

Beautiful presentation of a piece of Colorado. No wonder those who live here love it so much. Someday I hope to get there to see it for myself. Thanks, Anita, very much.

Never rebuke while you’re still indignant about a fault committed—wait until the next day, or even longer. Then calmly, and with a purer intention, make your reprimand. You’ll gain more by a friendly word than by a three-hour quarrel.

I can see why Anita! very majestic mountain standing proud for everyone to admire! Lovely composition on your part and the sky is an amazing blue!

The name ChuPat is derived from my nickname Chuck and my wife of 34 years name Patti. Her photography will appear on Caedes as well from time to time. I consider myself an advanced amature not anyway close to being a professional. I have just taken photography more seriously since I have switched to digital. My profession has always been associated with pohtography in one way or another. Any criticism I receive will be well appreciated.
Love the depth in the mountains Anita .. Well done

If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away. Henry D. Thoreau
Such a beautifully clear, colorful scene with great depth and so well composed. It's definitely one of my favorite pictures!

So rugged and beautiful at the same time which is quite an accomplishment in nature. The rocks look as though they have colors in them and the sky here is just gorgeous. Can't wait to see the other photos you're going to share with us Anita!

Very sharp. I love the lines and textures in clouds and rocks. Again, the color is a bit rich in the cyan. Otherwise very good shot. anne :-)

Most people lye asleep and notice nothing around them. Just wake up and see the natural beauty around you. It will blow you away.
This is great.That this has entirely worn out by erosion, incomprehensiblely actual.
