Spring Snow
Working quickly in sopping wet conditions along the Mesa Trail near Boulder yesterday, I liked the textures and greens in the forest and driving snow. 1/40 @ f11 gave me the snow blur I was looking for.

Nice contrast between the still woods and the driving snow.
It took me a bit to actually see that snow, though. If you're interested, try this--
Go to Selective Colors, choose Whites and then move the Black slider left to taste. :wink:

Thanks John, for the selective color suggestion. Here's the repost. :wavey:

You're welcome, Dave. I like this version a lot better...and I can sure see that snow now!
