Description I rose early on Thanksgiving Morning in hopes to catch some gorgeous light filling the sky. I worked my way to a familiar spot along Horsetooth and setup for the sunrise.

The clouds swept across the landscape illuminated by the warmest hues. It gave me time to realize how lucky I am to have finally made the move into the mountains. Not only lucky to have made the move, but to have a wonderful woman in my life willing to follow me as well.

The morning definitely allowed me to reflect on how many things to appreciate. And that even though sometime life isn't hop scotch and sunshine, you have to accept the bad and the good. Because without the bad, you'd never have anything to compare the best times too. And therefore nothing to be thankful for.

I hope everyone got as fat and happy as I was on Thanksgiving.

I think it's a really great conversion, Jake! The clouds really make this one work, for sure. It has a different kind of mood than is usually present in your work. I like it. There looks to be some slightly blown highlights in the sky, just above the rock. Might want to get a second opinion on that, though...sometimes I suck at that myself!

Yeah I just really enjoy the black and white version more than the color (for some odd reason). And the mood too. I just like the mood so very much. And I think that the highlights are a smidge high in that area and I can check that out again. Thanks for the support and I appreciate your always amazing comments

Hurray!!! I'm glad to hear that so much. It was irritating me too much in color and I really never convert to black and white. Thanks for the support
