For Shadow Shot Sunday and Mosaic Monday. Thank you to the hosts.
Look up. Gaze at the majestic peaks and shadows of Colorado's front range….and on the prairie stretching toward the mountains. See the early morning shadows cast by other hikers.

(If you're a novice at this altitude, looking down to take pictures is also a good excuse to rest for a minute.)


We appreciate all visitors and commenters! Thank you.
