Colorado Winter Sunset

On the drive home to Oklahoma, we were blessed with the beauty of a gorgeous sunset. If anyone knows me well, they know how much I love sunsets and especially taking pictures of that particular time of day. I grew up chasing down sunsets on my Grandma's farm and everywhere I travel, it seems to be the high light of the day for me. It's usually so hard to capture a Colorado sunset because of the enclosure of the mountains where we live. But fortunately, once you get to Denver and east, the view is beautiful of the mountains to the west and skyline. So this evening, I basically begged JT to pull the car over just east of Denver so that I could capture some colors. If you look close, you can see the mountains in the background. It was such a nice little gift from God that night.
