100"

[Alisa]

On my way back from Sedona and the Grand Canyon I had to swing by Crested Butte as I heard they had 100" of snow in now week!!! One of my favorite places!

CC Welcome.

Nice composition, Alisa. But if they had 100", wouldn't that structure be almost completely covered up? Quite a change in climate: Grand Canyon to the Butte!

What a beautiful snow scene. I imagine the driving was hairy.

Well I don't think all of CB was covered in 100 inches. But that is what was in the paper.

Thank you! The drive wasn't bad. The roads were clear getting to CB.

I like the wind blown surfaces on the snow with the old cabin and the nice alpenglow. Beautiful scene.

With drifting like this snow doesn't always accumulate where it fell.

Very cool Alisa! Love the pastel colors in the sky, the cool opening in the fence with the fresh snow and cabin half covered.

100"s in a week, like Alan said would get blown around anyway. And if it was over a week period of off and on, some of it had probably melted or blown off, before more snow had fallen later. No matter what, that snow looks perect!

Beautiful image, love the framing.

 

[Jim Dockery]

Wonderful light. I find the framing with the posts a bit distracting. Did you also walk up or zoom in to shoot the house without them? If not I see a nice vertical comp. between them in this shot.

Very Beautiful scene!

Thank you all for the comments! @AlanLichty and @JimFox that's what I thought about the wind and snow.

Alisa, does anyone want to flip the house? lol.

Love the old barns in the snow with mountain views.
