mountains Skiing Rock Mt.

The light was going fast on this winter day of back-country skiing in

Washington's Cascade range.

Unbelievable light here! The diagonal placement of the shadow lines and the sharp detailed texture of the snow's surface make this amazing composition even stronger! Congrats!

Thanks Yannis, I set myself up in a spot that the shadows and texture on the snow was brought out by the afternoon light and waited for my buddies to descend (which meant I didn't get to ski this last little bit!). 

Dear Jim,

This is a very exciting image...great scale, color, toning...everything really. Exhilarating!
