Great gallery!

I especially like Cascade Pond, Backyard Paradise and Ephemeral Sunrise but ALL are unbelievable.

I too think it was a bit yellow, but the shot in itself is very good

Then my apologies, great shot. Johhny keep shooting as early as you can, it will pay off. I arrive when it's dark and get ready before the first moments of special light.

I think it is too yellow, is the white balance correct?

It's a very nice scene, but that yellow cast, even if natural in the prevailing light, is just too much, IMO. Even the sky looks yellowish. I took the liberty of tweaking the color balance just a tad....

amazing picture ...

the yellow cast makes it look more like a painting, which i personally like, don't know if that is what you wanted.

Johnny,

You can't take great pictures like this with the kit lens! Haven't you read the forum??!!

All kidding aside, it really turned out nice. I like the first one best. We get this type of sunrise / sunset all the time where I live and I LIKE it!

I'm looking at these on a "not so good" monitor at work. Your first adjusted image looks the most neutral I think -- nice. The second maybe accentuates the clouds too much. Anway, maybe I shouldn't have "picked" on the yellowness, but it just seemed to pervade the whole shot -- but, maybe that is really what it looked like.

BTW, where was this taken? It reminds me of a scene I shot on Kauai, Hawaii.

That lens is pretty nice. I don't know why it gets some bad reviews.

Colorado is beautiful. Haven't been there myself - but maybe some day soon.
Thanks
