Grain silo
A couple of old photos taken while the Amtrak was stopped - somewhere in Colorado, I think?
(And yes, I like that the vertical leans!)
New website post
Just a heads up for anyone that may be interested (and as things are slow in the group.....).
The reproach
The attitude of these birds seemed me as human , so I took it.
Black Leopard
This female has arrived at Hamerton. This place rescues animals from all over the world, mainly endangered species, and they breed when they can.
Leopard spots and high heels
I've photographed Ady a few times now. We get better each time as a team. This image was a fave from our latest session. I hope you like it to.

HiBrandon,
Yes I'd add some saturation to the clouds, bring out some more of the orange.You could be tempted to change the hue to magenta, but it'd look goofy in my opinion. Its a shame the snow doesn't blanket everything, it would then be a better shot, without the brown from the dead grass. It could work as black and white as well, if you adjust the sliders for b&w conversion in Photoshop to add contrast, especially between the trees and the mountains (it'll look flat grey otherwise).
Thanks for your input, I totally agree about the foreground, some leading lines might help too. I will post another view...I appreciate you. Thanks again.
Sorry Nick, I meant to upvote your comment and pressed downvote by mistake. I'm trying to figure out how to undo it.
Ok, I guess clicking on it again takes care of it.
Hi Brandon,
I think the foreground is a little too intrusive and doesn't do much for this image. I would also perhaps increase the contrast of the trees against the mountains in the background. Other than that, for post-processing, I would maybe dual tone it just a touch, blue for the shadows and water and gold for the highlights and clouds.

Here is a different perspective with more snow and no grass. Better composition?
I don't think the clouds are as nice in this image, but I like composition itself more in this image.
I like this composition a lot more, all the leading lines direct you to the peak of the mountain in the distance.
