Well, it definitely feels like Winter skipped Fall this year, with the high winds, cold temps, and the snow falling in the valley and the mountains, this could be the start of a great snow year. Over the weekend the mountains turned a beautiful shade of white which made them look majestic. One skill I learned long ago when it comes to photographing winter landscapes is to really go into little sections of the mountains and bring out just those areas in your composition. The tree lines and the snow can be great subject matter without any other distractions.
