Taken on the morning with the most color - while I mainly had my eyes on The Big Show and did that pano and some smaller slices of the big landscape, I also had the presence of mind to look back across the road at what was giving us all that reflected color in the clouds. I’m not 100% sure, but I might have been the only one to do so. We’ll see if anyone else posts a shot of this in our Facebook group.
Anyway…there isn’t much to put in the foreground over there except the park road, so I went for all sky which I probably would have done anyway except for Bigfoot on a Pink Unicorn in the foreground. The road is still a little bit visible there on the bottom, but I left it dark so it wouldn’t draw the eye too much. Again, the colors are real and no sliders were hurt during the making of this image. Saturation +2, Vibrance 0. It’s one of the most amazing skies I’ve ever seen. With bonus Sundog, too.

Too much? Too little? Too Instagrammy?

Tripod
Single exposure although I did bracket for insurance.
Lr for initial RAW work which wasn’t much honestly. The basic sliders didn’t need much except a little nudge. Added some clarity. Photoshop to tease apart the colors some and to add some clarity to the mid tones. It’s about as SOOC as I get.
