It’s been a while since I shared a strictly “landscape” shot so here is one from back in the middle of October.

Wildfires were raging in the west and, in the end, were quite disastrous. One benefit to them was the amazing sunrises and sunsets the smoke created. Certainly, here on the Colorado Front Range we are no stranger to beautiful views starting and ending the day but the smoke took it up another notch.

This shot shows globe of our sun soon after it rose above the horizon and the beautiful orange clouds above. On top, the beautiful blue skies of the Centennial State are seen.
