Has got to be one of the most amazing mountain structures in the world. Well captured here, Eric. If this was recent, when were you there?

Nice one Eric! Our pics are almost exactly 3 years apart! :smile: snow amounts look fairly similar between the two. The snow pack in the sierra is officially at or slightly above normal according to DWP.

Wow, what a difference a Process makes :smile:
Very nice Eric...
Eric, was this with your short Landscape lens? :biggrin:
Is January the usual best month you suggest to go down there?
Is March too late for any snow usually?
Thanks for sharing both versions....

in gratitude,
Nelcha

I really like the b&w on this Eric!
Nelcha, march should be good for snow this year. Last year was pretty lean around that time.

B&W conversion is excellent, Eric.

Hi Eric,

The composition is striking and puts those rugged mountain peaks right in your face.

Although both versions are nice, I prefer the color one.
