Here's a few from the other morning looking at Mount Bierstadt on the right and Mount Evans in the middle. Our night was short lived though as the clouds came in quick and fast.

I'm always interested in any feedback you care to offer, likes and/or dislikes and which shot you prefer.

14mm

I like the first the best only bc there's the most contrast between foreground, mountains, and sky. It's gives it some depth, and not just a silhouette of the landscape. But all 3 look good.


Some cameras, some lenses

Thanks guys for providing your thoughts. Your comments are very much appreciated.

I added another shot since I finally found the time to process it. This was taken a couple hours later when the Milky Way was more vertical in the southern sky, so Mt. Bierstadt is to the left. The light painting was provided by a couple of cars which came into the parking lot about 1/2 mile away and courteously lit up my foreground while I was shooting.

#2 is my favorite, I like having more of the mountain in the frame, makes it look larger. Great shots, I understand the cloud problem, happens a lot...
