Dude, you need to learn to play nice with the other kids...
Thousands of people photograph this every year. Due to the time of day and where the light was, I had to go to the NW side to get a shot. I have no idea who you are, and I've never looked at you gallery. And believe it or not, my title (and apparently yours, too) is not very creative or original. Settle down and have fun. You may not realize it, but there are lots of people besides yourself who have taken photos at Garden of the Gods!

*sniffle* I'm getting all homesick. :) I've shot from this location before, and like the angle. I personally prefer shooting from closer to Kissing Camels shooting south (East side) I like the fade away effect you get as the rocks fade into the distance. It's nice to see the green. :)

Returning for comments.
This is a very attractive image with wonderful color and depth. The sky really sings. Bumping higher.

I find the light a touch harsh here - seems very high contrast, very stark. But it's a suitable scene, certainly. Iwas going to say i thought there was too much sky, but I guess I can see the point of that movement to deep blue.

Very nice. I look at this and wonder what it would have looked like portrait rather than landscape. Good shot.

I'm jealous - was there four days in June, and it was rainy/very cloudy the whole time. But - they said COS was in a serious droght so I didn't complain. Nice scenic, well composed and exposed.

Great early afternoon shot of the rocks.

Great landscape. Only improvement (for my eyes anyway) might be to crop the grasslands out just under the left rock formation. But still a 9 from me. Good job.

very nice :)

Excellent color, I think I would have liked to see a tighter crop on the top though
