The Ice Tower (Landscape version)

Tell me what you folks think of this one, specificly if you have any preferances between this and the vertical I posted on ESS. I think the vertical is the stronger composition but this one might have more dramatic impact.

Thanks.

Marc,
I think you summed it up. Also,with your vertical version, the forground trees were bigger and had more impact.

I opened this is said "Wow". I thought the previous color version would be better but this B/W treatment stunning as well. Then I looked at the vert shot in ESS and really said Wow. That one is definitely more dramatic. Both are great but the Vert is the winner for me.

Amazing, Marc - love how the dark sky borders the top of the mountain..

I like the vertical better. for whatever reason, it feels more dramatic. Maybe because the sky is more a part of the scene than in this one.

I love them both for different reasons, this one focuses more on the mountain itself.

I prefer the vertical, one reason being that I like being able to see the rugged outline of the top of the left peak. I'ld be more than happy to take either of them off your hands though.

The vertical gets my vote.

I don't know, this one is pretty sweet. I can see this one above the fireplace more than the vertical.

I usually hesitate to comment on your work because all I can ever come up with are new ways to say "spectacular". Even though I pursue completely different subject matter, I find the way you work so hard to create your images to be an inspiration. While I work hard at photography, you remind me I can work a whole lot harder.

I really like the way this image almost tricks my eyes into thinking that the clouds around the peak are moving. The first time I experienced this illusion in a photo was with Galen Rowell's classic shot of a storm clearing from El Cap.

Marc, I like being able to see more of the mountain here, but I prefer the vertical because it emphasizes the texture in the snow better.

God, that is beautiful! I love it! I like it better than the vertical because in the vertical i caught myself looking at the trees more than the peak. Where was this taken? It looks like something out of the Chronicals of Narnia movie.
