Simply incredible. One of the beatiful pictures i've ever seen. What a great moment.

I stand corrected! I hope that everyone has a nice Valentine's Day! I'm sorry about my mistake.

Interesting! I hope that everyone's Sunday is going great and safe! I also that they have a great and safe Presidents' Day!

We lived in Albuquerque in the early sixties, and I was often stunned by the beauty of the sky. This picture is incredible and the boy standing with his camera not only adds size,but a human factor as well. Beautiful!

Gorgeous

i'm at a loss for words. So many questions about equip/exposure etc. But for the record, I'd rather enjoy what you brought, as presented! beautiful image
