Winter's Magic

wow, another "wow"-shot Ian.

Awe inspiring God beams. Magic indeed!

That is really cool!

What can I say Ian, SWEET.

Spectacular rays and beautiful soft color Ian.

Awesome, definitely fits into the "dreamscapes". Well done Ian.

Well, that certainly is a "Dreamscape" Ian! The rays coming through so many parts of the tree is amazing. The little bit of blue sky bothers me a little but I don't think a crop would work and it's stunning as-is.

BRAVO Ian! You are on a roll!!

Powerful image. Great control of exposure. Love the magenta tones and the glow on the tree in back.

A beautiful, original shot. Some EXIF would be nice, though.

Fantastic!

Pink and cool.

Far out Ian.
Looks like a cover of a church bulletin on Easter.
Very powerful.

Amazing shot! I'm a big fan of your work, a great example of one of your "dreamscapes".

This is incredible ian. So much to look at, explore, and enjoy. Just beautiful.

FANTASTIC

Holy Moly! That is one awesome shot! What are the odds of catching the light from the Mother Ship as it lands behind the trees? Astronomical! Very cool, Ian!

Perfect timing and comp. Awesome, Ian. Kudos to the llama shining the light behind the trees.

Dude I like your style! Sometimes you like to go over the top! Perfect example here! Crazy nice job here. Looks like the tree is exploding on fire! Might tweak the non artsy, purists though...

Well, beam me up, Scotty; because this is rad. Way to take advantage of some very interesting light and conditions.

Wow, very cool Ian. I've never seen anything quite like it.

What rays! What a capture. Bravo Ian.

Divine and Glorious......
Great timing and capture Ian. Was the magenta that prevalent? Nice all around, very striking

Incredible!

Wow Ian, exploding Godbeams! Needles to say, awesome shot. Reminds me of the Balrog in the first LOTR movie! Great capture!

Insane! Ian, this is frickin awesome.

That is soooo cool Ian. I'd love to have been there (with a cup of hot cocoa) to see that!

Amazing conditions. This would make for the perfect Christmas card.

Holy s$#%, that's awesome

What a tremendous image Ian. Your timing is impeccable. I've never seen these types of rays actually going UP! I'm sure the exposure was tricky, but perfectly handled.

Ian: 4+ stunning. Magical shot. >=))>

very- !

wow...it is.

Wow! That explosion of light through the trees looks great. Wonderful image.

outstanding... besides making an outstanding print, you ought to be able to sell this to some religious organization...

Wow just awesome

That is spectacular!

Spectacular, Ian. I am in awe. Fantastic.

Stunning work, Ian. A really magical shot.

Wow, an amazing scene you captured here! Beautiful and evocative.

Thanks everyone for the comments! It was a very spectacular thing to witness in person. And much more fun than witnessing the Giant Demon Albino Cave Salamander rising from the depths of Hell from my last post!

Way over the top!

Super Image Ian! Right place at the very right time! and

Does not ever get better than this. You might as well retire now . An outstanding image Ian!!!!!!!

Best,

Jose

Jose, great suggestion. I quit! I'm going back to my old job as a lawyer.

Amazing stuff Ian. I have never seen anything like it.

Amazing!!
