Description

The first thing I do each morning after rising is to look out the window at Pike's Peak. And the last thing I do as the sun sets is to look at this mountain. Here is how she looked one night.

The old humpback gets plenty of exposure, doesn't it? With visibility from Colorado Springs to Victor and most points in between. Nice shot, Jan. #47591

Excellent photograph, Jan.

Everyone is right in saying that the exposure is good. However, that is not what I think makes this photo. Personally, I think the composition makes the photograph. I really like the low placement of the landscape within the frame. It enhances the feeling of a great expanse.

Good work.

Cheers,
Glenn #55078
