An abnormally cold 8 degrees as the sunrises across Donner Summit. I was glad to be able to set up close to my car for this one!

This looks every bit as cold as what you describe - I'd likely keep the car running while taking the shot too.
Nice clear conditions other than the low clouds off to the left. Maybe they got too cold to go any higher

Very nice, you got a good exposure and star on the sun.

Actually, the valley inverts most days. That is a combination of radiational fog and steam fog off the lake.This looks every bit as cold as what you describe - I'd likely keep the car running while taking the shot too.

Thanks, Ben. I usually do two shots in these situations to get the right exposure and to avoid flare.
Nice winter scene and yeah it looks cold.

Thanks, Amy. I don't normally shoot here as the road is just a few feet away but I made an exception here due to the low temps.
That curving bridge is really cool Kurt! I can hear you about the temps, as this last week in Colorado it's been down below 0 at times with highs only in the teens.
This made me think, your area there is pretty remote and not much traveled, I wonder what that would look like from a drone perspective?

Not sure, Jim. I don't have a drone although I get some pretty good perspectives using snowshoes and crampons.
