Cottonwood Pass in Colorado

A Colorado Sunset At Cottonwood Pass - September 13, 2006

Colorado Sunset
I took a late evening drive to Cottonwood Pass just to get out, clear my head and maybe capture some interesting photography. I arrived at the Cottonwood Pass summit and photographed the seemingly unimpressive skyscape to the west (above). Ah, but then I met these three really friendly people. The guy on the left is in the Army and offered me a swig of his wine. I passed on the wine, but got to talking to them about 14ers, Manitou Springs (where two of them used to live) and this web site. They were so likable that I had to include them in this picture collection! ;)
