Thank you Toni. It was an amazing location for the lodge. Only pity is that we were so busy
catching up on sights that we hardly spend time there. If you want to seclude yourself away
from it all. That's the place. I am also getting a better hang of Luminance HDR too.

This area is called Devil's Kitchen. I saw it on a map years ago and had unsuccessfully searched for it. I was able to locate it on google earth and so this last week I took my parents up there and we were able to find it. I need to go back when I have more time to walk around.

Very nice picture with a sense of space. B6W works perfectly for this one!

Thanks Sury. It's in northern Wyoming, about 45 minutes from where I live.

Thanks Toni. I am definitely going to go back when I can spend more time.

caporip that's a great shot. I really like the different textures from the clouds, the rain and the stubble. Well done.

Richard,
It is a nice shot and I keep feeling it is a part of a bigger scene and incomplete.
Perhaps, not having any land marks as anchors might be the cause for my sense
of incompleteness. Mind you, it is me, not you(r image). :D

Keith,
The first one is just fantastic. Has that painting quality.
My favorites are #1, #3 and #2 in that order.

One of the things I like about living in Wyoming is the vastness of the country. In the first picture the two round dome shaped mountains are 100 miles away straight line. On the far left hand of the image on the horizon are some lighter colored mountains in the far distance. As near as I can tell from maps and google earth, that is another mountain range further away. If I'm correct, it would be around 145 miles away. And as you can tell it's not a clear day.

Also, the first shot is two images stitched as a panorama.

The second is just out there with that dramatic sky, Jeff. The first one certainly give you a sense of
vastness.

Thanks Sury. Here's a couple more shots from earlier that day higher up in the mountains. It looks like winter is on the way. This is an especially neat fall during the spring and summer as a lot of water flows out of a hole in the middle of the rock wall to the right. In the second picture you can see the ice flow that developed as water has trickled through the last few days. The main fall itself is 200 feet high.
