This is not my typical type of photo, but we've been getting so much snow up here in Breck this week I decided to take some shots around town in the early morning.

Nate, that is awesome! Talk about a picture postcard!

I agree, picture postcard perfect, this screams winter wonderland!

I was just going to say that this needs to go into the January theme! Perfect winter wonderland :smile:

Outstanding! Love the warm glow from the lights contrasting with the cold snow. A highly effective comp and just a beautiful image.

Makes me want to drink hot chocoloate and sit by the fireplace! Very, very nice!

I can only echo the others' thoughts here (esp. Amy). I'd be surprised if you didn't find a market for this image in your town. Well done!!

Sweet shot! I love shots like this that show the town, the lights, the mountain, the snow... very nice.

Very nice Nate. Breck has really gotten some nice snow this winter.

Besides the town, you might try to reach out to Vail Resorts with this image.

What Amy said!

It seems I'm always trying to avoid photographing buildings and towns. This is a perfect example to keep an open mind, beauty can be found everywhere.

Beautiful shot! I agree with the others, this is highly marketable. Sad to hear there is a lot of beetle kill. I hate beetles!!!! :mad:

Sweet shot, the street lights really add a great ambiance!
