Mt. Tom Wakes Up

[ProCaliberTraveler]

I did a road trip to attend a work event in Bridgeport, CA yesterday. To get there on time, I left Bishop at 0600. Because I was up so early, I was able to witness a pretty decent sunrise. This is Mt. Tom, just one of the peaks surrounding Bishop. I took this photo after pulling into a vista point on U.S. Highway 395 on Sherwin Grade. The first big storm of the season has arrived and snow is falling thick and fast!

Very cool light - glad you were up early enough to see/shoot the scene. I love the cloud enveloping the peak.

Sweet image. I once thought I would love to retire to Bishop, love that area.

Mt Tom is one of my favorite peaks in the Eastern Sierra and you captured it so well Michael!

Ben, at one point I had the same thought!
