 Thanks to the mostly clear sky this morning, the scenery was much more interesting. Best day in February, so far. This image was captured on 02/11/14 7:19am MST. Sunrise occurred at 7:00am. The blowing snow added drama. At lower elevations, the wind was mostly calm. From left to right: Chiquita, Ypsilon, Fairchild. Canon 5Dmk3, Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM, f/10, ISO 100, lens focal length 55mm, [1/160s, 1/100s, 1/60s].

MUCH better size here.

Beautiful, highly saturated landscape wherein the wind makes its presence known through the snow dancing off the mountaintops.

Nice image with great lighting. Border is odd -- go fo something simpler so as not to distract from the photo. Rhythm connection is not very strong.

I think you're hurting yourself with the really heavy letterboxing here, Richard. The image feels cramped and leaden to me, squeezed, laboring. It's a lovely image regardless, I think your processing is reaching much higher levels of intensity lately.
