Here is one of my images from this winter. I found catching good light and the snow pretty difficult. Most of the the time sky conditions were grey and cloudy.
Let me know what you think. Appreciate it.

Really nice, Gale. Great composition and nice color/light. Was this taken on Red Bluff Drive at Petit Jean?

Thanks Isaac very much. This is from Mt. Magazine. It's a very wide stitched itmage. I think 5 images from my 1DS mark III.

Imaging catching a scene like this in Arkansas. Great color, I love the warm and cool tones.
Fantastic.

Beautiful scene, Gale. I love the long shadows, and the colors are gorgeous. The only thing that might need a little work is the sky. The right half seems a little dark.

You are right Bill it is. It's not something I want to correct in this image. This image is very deceiving because this is easily a 180 degree view. So when you look away from the sun the sky is just darker. Anyway that's why. I think it looks alot better bigger myself also.
I do appreciate an honest critque from you though. You don't always get one around here.

Great shot.
Agree with Bill, perhaps lightening the upper right but I've seen skies that way in real life??

A great winter scene Gale. I really like shadows in the snow, thanks for sharing.

Of course it's a stitch! LOL! The sky doesn't bother me because I know it is a stitch. A beautiful scene Gale. I also love the warm colors illuminating the snow. Fire and Ice!

Great light. I like the way the trees on the right seem to be reaching toward the sunlight.

Wow. Spectacular image Gale; I hope to see a larger version of this some day. It's good to see you posting again.
