 I got up into the foothills at sunrise for this shot. This is also my first entry with my new wide angle Sigma 10-20. You know, I think there is something to this "early light", getting up early, getting good equipment thing....

A most interesting study with that black hole of a shadow to enhance this lovely vibrant image. Congratulations on your top ten finish.

I was guessing that this might of been yours. The wide angle, the style and ofcourse Red Rocks all led me to believe it so. Great photo, amazing color richness! Grats on the top ten.
