Flathead Valley Clouds

Here are a few images from sunset last night. The forecast looked interesting and there were some great clouds in the sky, so I decided to explore the lower Flathead valley. I was hoping to find a good barn to use as a foreground, but that didn't materialize. I focused on the mountains and clouds instead. Any thoughts are welcome.

Really nice Kyle - especially the light in the last image. I have wandered around that valley a few times and never have found good compositions I felt like stopping for.

How fun Kyle! Those clouds do look cool and it is great to see a few touches of color in the clouds.

My favorite I think is the B&W. Followed by the first one and then #3.

Hopefully there are some old barns in the valley somewhere.

Great images and nice conditions for shooting. #2 is my fav too. I can see an alternate crop bringing the top edge down just above the white clouds, it would give the mountains a sense of looming grandeur next to the small buildings. And maybe lens correction in that case to give a flat horizon instead of curved. Just an idea though, I love this version!
