Fire on the Cold, Mountain Top Sunrise
Sunrise on the snow patterns from the summit of Tumalo Butte. Localized mist resides in the distant valley below. 5D, 17-40, Tripod, 3-stop soft grad.

Yeowsers!!! This is just sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!! That soft grad did a nice job of not wiping out the snow covered trees in the transition.

No nits from me Marc this is wonderfully groovy!!

Wow, stunning. Hot and Cold at the same time - but mostly cold ! Love the crop, too.

Wonderful job composing and then controlling the light, dramatic imagery

Beauty. Well composed and exposed. Love it. That fog adds great touch.

The best part is those three trees bent towards the warm sun as if saying, "warmer, soon, please, soon, warmer..."
