snow

My husband kicking up fresh snow last winter :) Fresh snow by Amy Earl posted Feb 25, 2020 at 2:44 PM

Yesterday I just needed to get out of the house for a while and take a breather. It wasn't a good day to be out shooting at all, the lighting was terrible and everything looked very dingy, but I did take my IR camera with me just in case. I came across this Railroad bridge trestle and thought it...

In light of the news that Sunny broke to us about all of the restrictions that Yosemite is putting into place as to where Horsetail Falls on Fire can be captured at this year, this is from down along the Merced River in an area that is now off limits. I captured this 12 years ago, and I am...

Taken on a great day of back-country powder skiing at Stevens Pass, WA. As you can see we had the mountain to ourselves and knee deep powder! I've posted a ski shot from the same location over in the Sports forum (which doesn't seem to get much traffic).

Another image I was able to capture in the park. Although its not the classic Teton view. CC welcome

My wife and I went on our first X-ski day up The Mountain Loop Hwy yesterday. You can't see it in this picture but it was lightly raining all day (not unusual in this area) but our Gortex worked and we had a nice day - the snow was surprisingly good skiing in a snowmobile track.

This is another one I took last June in Colorado off of the I-70 in the Rocky Mountains. All comments are welcome, Jim

Usually one doesn't associate the month of May with snow, but in Colorado last year the snow just seemed like it would never ever stop. This is just off the I-70, East of the Eisenhower Tunnel. The scenery was looking so cool with the snow falling, finally at one spot an Exit and a Frontage road...

My partner Jeff and I did what we think might have been the first ski descent of Columbia Peak's west face. Jeff got this shot as I started down the steep snow slope just at sunset. This was the perfect end to a very long and tiring day. We slept very well in our bivy just below the face.

Shot from Hwy 20, North Cascades. Sky by Luminar.

I was about to archive a folder of shots from a drive over Hwy 20 through the North Cascades. I saw this shot, which I had passed over for a wider view. This morning I worked on it and cropped in a lot to focus on the angles and layers.

Last November after my detour to shoot the sunset over farmland in Colorado, just as I was about to pull back onto the highway I saw the color still in the sky and thought it might look cool with a slower shutter speed and the traffic racing by. All comments are welcome, Jim

Hi, happy new year! Sorry I haven't been posting in 2019. I took a trip to the Tetons for a long weekend getaway. Used my new long lens and captured this guy!

I loved the snow on this Chain Link Fence. This is a scene I found in Los Alamos, New Mexico a month ago. All comments are welcome, Jim

Just a single branch in the middle of a snow storm in New Mexico. I got this about a month ago and liked the look of the branches. It borders on Minimalism perhaps? All comments are welcome, Jim

The Focus this Friday is on "Fresh Snow". We did a Focus a few week back on Snow, but this one specifically is on Freshly Fallen Snow, as opposed to snow that has been out for days. If you like braving snow storms like I do, you should have lot's of Fresh Snow photos to choose from. :) Please...

This was from a month ago, an early snowfall in New Mexico left Santa Fe looking so cool and different. While taking a short cut on some back streets after getting some ice tea at McDonalds, I came across this super old cemetery. What a complete surprise as I didn't expect a cemetery tucked away...

It looks like they are only harvesting snow at this point. :) This was from a month ago in Colorado. Grandkid #9 had just been born the day before, and this was on the way back from the hospital heading towards my daughters house north of Denver. I saw that the sunset looked like it might be...

So I left my daughters the day before my birthday so that I could wake up to snow in SW Colorado. So I camped out up at Dallas Divide. It was supposed to snow overnight, but it ended up only snowing a bit. But about an hour after sunrise the snow storm came in and hit. I got some cool shots of...

Driving down from Washington Pass, Silver Star catches the late afternoon light.
