Both are just beautiful, Randy. Love the colors, comp. and light. I like more of the sky showing in the second one. #10348132

While I like both images, I agreee with Tammy and do like the one with more sky. Either way, they're wonderful OM! When I first saw the thumb, I thought that patch of red was an OM hunkered down. LOL. #10363322

Ditto on the "more sky" choice. It's a wonderful feature in SnapShot#609; your explanation helps my learning. #10480657

Not surprised to see this recognized AGAIN Randy as special the SnapShot#609.. sooo well deserved too!
