Take all you want, but eat all you take... do unto others... something about wooden nickels.
I'm going to try and stick by the rule above, and support others that do. I love to talk as much as anyone (probably more than most), but I hope others would characterize me as showing restraint when the chips are down. If not, call me out. I've met too many people who's comments sound like they are trying to eek out a 500-word essay with 150-words of content, so they "triple-space" with circular arguments and nonsense. Done.

I've updated this mage with some software I acquired after this initial post. The software is the "Glamour Glow" filter in Nik's Color Efex Pro. It gives it a much softer and more golden glow than the previous image (below). I would certainly appreciate any feedback about which one (if either) you like the best.
Thanks, Mike
Last September (2008), I took a few days to travel around Colorado and enjoy the changing colors of fall. One morning, shortly after sunrise, I stopped to take a picture of this grassy area on the north rim of the Black Canyon of the Gunnison where the play of light and shadow across the grass caught my attention. Just as I got set up, the "photo gods" smiled on me and I saw these two coyotes trotting across the field, just out beyond the trees. It is always so fascinating to see wild animals in their element and especially when they are completely unaware of your presence. This pair was probably returning to their den after a night of hunting. It was a beautiful morning during my favorite time of year and I felt very fortunate to capture this rare sight.
