Given its majesty and how well it looks in the late afternoon and evening, you would think that I had thousands of photos of Mt. Sopris. I've got a few I really like, but the conditions have to be right for me to pull over on the way home from work and fire off a few shots. Last night was one of those times when conditions were great.
Instead of the hazy or snow-filled skies, or the boring cloudless skies of a really nice day, there were just the right amount of clouds surrounding the summit of this 12,950 foot peak south of Carbondale, Colorado.
The polarizing filter deepened the color saturation and brought out the contrast between the clouds and sky well. I zoomed in a bit, using a 44mm focal length (66mm equivalent), and this morning cropped up from the bottom to finalize it.
