Love the textures of the snow drifts, and shadows throughtout the foreground, and then up into the mountains above the line of fog.

Thanks for the comment Marc. This was shot about two minutes after the light reached the foreground. See my previous two posts for shots earlier that morning.

Love this one James. Did you get there for the early light too? A striking image that gives a great sense of place with depth and instant asthetic impact.

Hi James, A good display of patience (presuming it's sunrise we're witnessing here) I like this portrait format, eventhough it does not entirely justify the magnificent mountain ridge in the background. This is completely made up for by the light striking the top of the mountain. Great shot.
Cheers,
Hugo

Well worth the effort of getting up early and out in the cold for, nice to see a view of the Tetons we don't see very often: nicely captured. Lovely lighting.

Hi James, the fog in the distance definitely makes this one tick. Empty, barren, yet beautiful and very appealing. RE the 2x3 or 4x5 aspect ratio in your images, I figured as much, and I see your point. It would've surprised me if it would've been an "oversight" from a photographer with your skills... As to thinking out of the box, I find it a very useful technique to experiment and as a tool to retain a bit of creativity in my more regular and commercial work, but I would stay away from it where the commercial work itself is conserned. Thinking out of the box is easily overdone, and even overrated at times.
Cheers,
Hugo

Beautiful view of the mountains, James, and of course the snow cover makes it just that much different! The layer of mist really adds the finishing touch!

A fabulous shot. Superb balance, and the mist at the base of the mountains just lends the image that little bit of je ne sais quoi that really makes this shot work. Excellent!

I don't think I've ever seen a bad photo of these Grand Teton Mountain Ranges but there is something about a snow covered scene which makes it more majestic and fresh. This is breathtaking. All the snow is beautifully exposed and I love the layer of mist at the foothills. A Lovely scene and beautiful photo.

Thanks Hugo. I agree that the upper layer doesn't add anything to the shot. I thought about cropping it before uploading it, but I couldn't get myself to do it because I always deal in 2x3 or 4x5 aspect ratio images. Maybe I should step outside the box a bit.

Hi James, Very cool capture, and some very storng winter tones. I primarily like the natural feel of this image, created by those tones. As to the composition, I feel there's one (or possibly two) layers too many in this photo, though (there's the white field in the foreground with the elk in it, the darker brown strip behind it, follwed by yet another lighter one, and finally the bushes and sky (?) towards the top of the photo) Leaving the photo in it's original aspect (I believe) does provide a lot of information about the settings of this shot, but aesthetically, I'd say two (or even one layers) in this image would suffice. The other two seem to be a bit redundant, as they don't add much to the feel of this photo, other than a reference to the depth and scenery.
Cheers,
Hugo
