This was taken just west of Fort Collins looking east at the colorful sunset. This is the start of the Rocky Mountians foothills and just behind me is Horsetooth Reservoir. The ridgeline is going down and i liked the trees.
This photo was taken on the back end of dusk. The sun had set and there wasn't a clould in the sku. The orange over the foothills was nice to see. i liked how Horsetooth Reservoir was white with a dusting of snow and ice. The tree grew in this position. Made for nice balance with the orange relfection on the other side of the image.
