Description
To purchase this image as an exclusive limited edition print please visit my website @ WWW.NATEZEMAN.COMThe best sunset I've seen in a while. For a sense of scale look towards the bottom of the photo, and you'll see a dirt road.
A lot of you will probably ask about the color in this shot because it looks a bit unreal. I actually had to pull back some of the saturation in the RAW adjustments because the orange on the rocks was so intense.
Chimney Rock - Owl Creek Pass - Uncompahgre National Forest, Colorado

Awesome shot. Up near wolf creek pass gets some awesome sunsets also. The orange is insane. Sometimes it's just unbelievable that your eyes are seeing but you blink shake your head and it's still there.

This is so grand! That road really gives us a sense of how huge this is. I would love to see the unedited one. I can't imagine how orange it must have been.

I LOVE Owl Creek Pass. I can see the mountain range from my house here in Montrose and we go up to Owl Creek often. <3
Excellent photo. The best I've seen of Chimney Rock.

I used to spend my summers in Colorado...man, I miss that.
Painfully beautiful shot. I hope that everyone can one day experience the Colorado Rockies like that.

There's just something about the Rockies that lets the sky give you colors like that...and captures like this make me realize why I miss them so much. Fantastic.
