Rudi's photo of "False Bay Sunset" reminded me of these photographs that I made last August. Two friends and I climbed to the summit of Ear Mountain, a local landmark. We timed our arrival on the summit to be just before sunset. I captured these photos, like Rudi did in his, a few minutes after the sun went below the horizon. I like how the mountains appear as layers and almost show some transparency.

After photographing the sunset we spent the night on the summit. Here's a shot of me my friend got the next morning just after sunrise. There are more photos from this adventure on my ChoteauCam.
