Snow at the Towers
Spent the weekend in Moab, we headed out early Friday, on the way in we stopped at the Towers, very interesting weather while we were there. We pulled in at about 10:30am, sun was shining, a recent storm had left little puddles and the ground was still somewhat muddy in places. As we were walking around, this storm starts to settle in on the Towers and fast. We tried to get around to get a better view and the temps start dropping, I quickly set up not knowing what was about to hit. After this shot, the snow started flying, it was very cool, the group climbing the Towers probably didn't think so. The storm lasted all of about 10-15 min and was quickly out of there. Need to go through the rest of the trip, but this was by far the most interesting thing we encountered all weekend.

Nice work, Joe. Sorry we weren't able to meet up. I ended up taking a quick trip to Denver with my wife. Hope you had a great visit and look forward to seeing some photos from the trip.

Very cool, Joe! I think id be tempted to crop the bottom and just go with the misty top.

Ghostly and wonderful, I so dislike those bright and cheery shots! LOL seriously I love the mood of this one as it is so very different from what is normally shown from locations such as this!

Wow that's awesome. The misty weather works great for this photo.

Nice mood indeed. A little crop on the left about midway to take out those three little knobs might help, but I like how the foreground rocks anchor the photo. Almost puts me there.
