Hope you enter both Ken. Both are beautiful. You know I serviced the Thunderbirds on my base in France. I was on Call that weekend in the Aircraft Maintenanance Squadron I was in.

Murry Grigsby August 20, 2008

Two really nice shot Ken! Even though number one has the best sunrise number two is my FAV because it feels more 3-D with the better modeling light and the wide-angle clouds mimicing the curve of the horizon. Terrific little diversion for your drive to work!! :0) Looks like the weather got on of the limbs recently. #6337011

Both are beautiful images, Ken!! #6337049
