Very nice - I love the mountains with fresh snow too.

This is a very natural looking MW shot, I like it a lot.

 

[Ann S]

Very cool. Love the way the MW just overs over the mountain.

Very nice Jim. This one stands out because of the snow and the MW core. Hard to get those two to coincide.

Hey Tim,

Thanks so much. I was actually out doing a one on one class on night shooting, so it was a very cool night to be out.

I like the detail in the core, I actually experimented with a different bit of processing that came to me to keep the MW looking natural.

Jim: Superior image. I just love it. (Tell me you were sitting in the hot springs in Ouray while you were shooting this. : )

I have just started doing some night photography, so I'll be interested in learning your techniques.

That's a sweet MW with superb clarity. Nice.

Well done Jim - great balance of light between the sky and mountains

 

[Jameel Hyder]

Very nice. I wonder if a slightly darker sky will bring out the start better.
