As with black and white film, the monochrome Leica has the same results when using colored filters on the lens. In this case, I used a red filter to darken the blue sky and bring out the gentle white delicate cloud that was fortuitously passing by. In PP, I further darkend the sky just a touch with a gradient filter in LR.
Thanks for the great comments and votes! I feel honored to have this image place this high in a challenge with so many great images.
This is west of the NCAR facility below the Flatirons in Boulder Colorado.

Congrats on the Blue and a true landscape masterpiece. Inspiring me to go out and shoot. Thanks for your your persistence in presenting work like this.
Spectacular. Was thinking it looks like Garden of the Gods but then I remember seeing photos of this tree at the Flatirons. Dennis, is that you? If so, lovely shot.
