Great use of shadows, light and colours.
I find it hard to get all three just right in a photo.
You have done it.
Great photo, IMO.

very nice capture! I was quite surprised when I saw you picture, a flat horizon as far as the eyes can see without the Rocky mountains which I always associate with Colorado.

lovely colors, lovely composition good job,
I like the way you captured shadows on the ground

Thanks, everyone. Yes, conch....it's not typical. But, almost 40% of Colorado is this way. That's what make these Buttes stand out so much. This would be looking to the southeast toward Kansas.

Just an afterthought. I would love to see this double exposed with the moon much larger (maybe 5x). As is, looks great

Great eye. Didn't really even notice the moon before, just quickly glanced at it. Anyway I agree this would be really awesome if the moon was huge Nice work!
