Shadows AND trees in one photo! Was taken a couple summers ago somewhere in Glacier National Park, I don't remember where. Thats probably my favorite place in the world.
Like Mr Spork, I also write about my interest in alcoholic beverages.

Here's mine. Following suit. This one is 5 years old and was taken in the Great Smokey Mountains - one of my favorite places in the world. :)

My wife probably knows exactly where we were, but all I can remember is that we were driving along at sunset while we were touring the Northwest. I think it was in South Dakota.

MAn dM, those Smokie Mountains do look pretty cool. If you look close enough in your picture, you can see a hillbilly bottling some white lightning fresh from his still.

I've actually got one very similar to dM's from Asheville NC of a sunset over the smokey's. Nearly looks the same minus the tree. I enlarged it to a 22 x 38 and it hangs on my living room wall in a pewter frame. It's been one of my fave pics for years. Nearly makes me homesick for the Carolinas.
