I heard about the fog early this morning and rather than waste all three days of a three day weekend I decided to give it a shot. (Sorry, couldn't resist) The fog was pretty thick down lower but up higher, way down past Monkey traverse I found this. Maybe more to come later from today.

Russ, this is fantastic! My inclination's usually to stay low and wait for conditions to come to me. You went after it and got something amazing. Can't wait to see more.

I never knew you could get shots like that out of the flatirons...very nice indeed!

Very nice! The open space on the right really draws my eye down the valley. Well done!

Russ, I like the backlit frost on the needles, the framing and the touch of red. Do you have just a little more of the upper limb to add as that twig seems cut off just slightly?

Great comp, I"m really liking this.

Terrific work Russ! I really like the triangle made by the trunk of the tree.
