This is a rather old faded Kodachrome slide from the mid 1970's.The middle girl atop the rocks is my eldest daughter (arms outstretched), and her sister is the one climbing up from below. The other two are my neighbour's children. We are well over 12,000 ft in the Rockies just North of Boulder, Colorado, and most of the cumulus clouds were well below us in the valley to the Left.

Very dramatic with the lightening, Doug. This could, in fact, be the top of the world.

The thing that goes the farthest, towards making life worthwhile, it costs the least and does the most, is just a pleasant smile.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

Doug, sweet friend, I think you got carried away too far with your fantasy...:)
I am right now at the top of the world and there are no little girls around, just one brown-red mutt, oops.., sweet agent SAAB:)
Yours happy
SAM & SAAB who love the message of this image and the picture itself tremendously.

The dark rocky ground and the "lightning" in the sky together give this image a surreal look. Good manipulation Doug.

A very dramatic and terrific shot Doug. I assume the lightning was manipulated in. Otherwise, a peak like that in a thunderstorm is a dangerous place.
