Pure

[Artur Stanisz]

A magical evening on top of the mountain with lots of fresh snow and amazing light. One of the great properties of snow is how it can simplify and purify the landscape.

Beautiful image Artur. I am particularly interested in how dark you make the shadows and the natural blue tint that you have retained. Your rendition shows the bumps and hollows and makes me want to reprocess some of my snow images although mine do not have the virginal snow shown here. Thank you, Ken

Amazing shapes and shadows. Nice work with the light.

 

[Darcy Grizzle]

That is beautiful

This is one fantastic snow image. Color and processing are amazing.

This is great Artur! Like Ken, I really enjoy how you worked the shadows in this. It's also neat to see those clouds in the background that almost look like they are boiling over.

Nice, it just needs a skier cutting that sunlit rib in the center!

 

[Dave Dillemuth]

Beautiful, elegant composition. Has a silky fluidity similar to what I've seen in sand dunes.

Late to the party to comment on this - but sometimes once you see something you just have to blurt out how fantastic it is. Another great image Artur.

I have to say I always like the way your work seems to emphasize the beauty of the planet, without any man-made impacts. It is as if we are able to go back in time and see the planet for what it was before we started tromping all over the place and leaving our impacts on it.

Superb, both technically and artistically.
