if you really want to, I will let you move down here,lol..is a nice area..
Joys, they are good shots--but there are uncountable pics all over southern part of state.. best,,--joe

third pic is good-sun through tree branches really make it.
like the last sunset,but you needed to lean a bit further out to miss door frame[I know can be done,because I, have, to take many of mine from the car].they are both good pics.
---joe

oh my,,the dreaded "what now"... dear--pick a scene,,any scene, as long as you really like it.. mark where to shoot the pic from.the return at an hour later[or earlier] each day,take the same shot..this incudes, stormy/cloudy/sunny/foggy/hot/cold days..sunrises/sunsets,again-same spot..you will find the different lighting/time of year, will give you a great understanding of your scene[maybe an award winng pic even].
you will understand what sunrises/sets have the best skylines as the sun moves north and south.
plus--you can't have taken all,all, the pics of ariz.[been there],because there are at least 1.5 million pics possible.--joe

bozeman???whos 'cat'???don't remember anyone around there with a nice kitty like that,,only the bobcat at the 'old' hardware store,before it went to "ACE"...---joe

hi Harlo,,think there are more than 3..and I'm a useta be[raised there--to cold-n-snowy for me now]..---joe

welcome,,done told us "montana"..I'm an old mont. resident [lewistown area],,what area you from[just general]???---joe

N-I-C-E-!!!! sure wish more showed up here..-joe

sounds like most of my pics.. the "butte" is 'gooseberry',,my son-in-law goes mountain biking there lots,,it was a sunrise, taken from a spot about 1/4 mile south of my house.[several hundred feet higher].--joe

yes to above..but only could be done with a "do over"for my critique,and when the pic taken..I would have raised the camera
in place of "cropping grass"[effectively doing that].. also raising the view would have shown a bit more blue sky[contast]and curvature of the balloon[defeeting sense of wall]..the young lady gives beautiful perspective to size[and entire scene..---joe
forgot,,also would have shifted camera slightly to left so young lady would be walking towards center..[only slightly,so would still have a bit of right baloon in pic..

OUTSTANDING.. we have some here[in winter] around the virgin river gorge,in NW corner of arizona..never got that close though.lol best----joe

has anyone ever gotten "rays" of lite during sunset/rise pics,without useing the lens to create them???

[quote=RMM
That being out of the way, I think your second photo is more dramatic than the first one.[/quote]

first,,,please don't think I was attacking anyone.. just a comment.
second,,thank you for the nice comment.
continuation,,my most likely[quickest/easyest] places for pics of sunrises/sets are close,with little driving to get there.and no walking/climbing[difficult at this time],,..thanks again for comment.--joe

since this has been hijacked by others,I'll join in..
for Pix/Rmm/Teri,,heres a couple from my "points"[high/low]..
Teri--what part of calif???[just general area]---joe

sunset


sunrise

funniest part--if you know our history,,,there probably have been camels visiting there...way back when,the army used camels[testing] in the southwest as pack animals.. didn't work as they hoped and many went free,to roam until died or killed.
