At first, we were overwhelmed by the everyday Colorado high-altitude dark purplish blue sky -- it felt like we were astronauts on the edge of space. After a month, we started taking it for granted. Now, back in Southern Calif (with a hazy pastel blue sky), we are once again aware of how amazing it was.
On several of the photos I took, I actually had to make the sky duller, by toning down the saturation of the sky during the editing process. It looked unnatural, even though the photo was perfectly accurate.
If you think about it at 12,000+ feet you are over 2 miles HIGH - "That's a Colorado Rocky Mountain High"
Makes you appreciate a cloud or two. :)
When in Silverton you are truly in the middle of some of the most Beautiful Wild areas of Colorado.
Thought you might have gotten to the "Famous" Crystal Mill - Crystal Mill Marble Crested Butte as it would Appreciated an image or two from Your Eye. :)
As everyone else, I too Enjoy and Anticipate your sharing the Great Images as you explore the BackCountry out West.
