Hey Gary,
Sweet colors and mood! It does appear a bit noisy in the sky and that is surprising at ISO 200 but it also may just be motion blur at 1/30. Very easy fix on that so....while I may have preferred the main mountain over slightly....opening up the shadow area on the LL may achieve the same result....as it isn't centered. Remind to to pay you a visit when I'm at Bosque on my tour and we will be ending up in ABQ on the 4th and 5th....if you don't mind an extra 5 people on your balcony!!! The light snow and clouds really make this as does the last light! Nicely done!

What a view to have from your balcony, Gary! I like the light and shadow effect on the mountain made by the broken sunlight. As Roman mentioned, fixing the noise would add to the image. TFS.

regards,
ramesh

Roman, thanks for the ideas. There is plenty of space on the balcony. Hope to see you at Bosque.

Hi Gary, Nice repost with interesting mixed lighting and great clouds. I would be for a small crop off the right(up to the end of the small lit band) which I feel would better balance the comp. Nice overall image...

Very nice Gary, great view from your deck.
