      Wonderful texture to this! Almost like a Jackson Pollock painting.

      wow...almost looks like it was polarized in a darkroom. nice!

    5. Lú_ (89 months ago | reply)

      This is just fabulous! There are small areas of increased detail that make it really rich.

      Amazing - I was sure it was cracked glass or snow/frost from the thumbnail.

      thanks fellow penitents! the light was so flat in aspen yesterday but i think it helped here.

      nancy drew- you've solved the 'mystery at maroon bells'! (well, not really, but i couldn't resist)

      lu & nj- a lot of the branches were black. maybe a recent forest fire?

      em- ahem. noted. (update: seems you need an invitation)

      Very impressive shot. Very eerie. It instantly stirs some unexplainable inner reaction.

      Wonderful patterns, and the touch of overexposure works brilliantly. Snow is always a winner for me, but this I really love. So creative, a great frame.
