Description
An Enchanted WinterI always wanted a shot like this and actually I was able to get a few of them! As odd as it may sound, scenes like this have always escaped me, why I am none to sure but they sure have! Captured on top of the Sandia Mountains outside of Albuquerque, New Mexico, on a very fresh winter morning the day after fresh snowfall. The air was crisp, so clean, so pure, and when I saw this I immediately said "Yes! That's it! That's the shot I have always wanted" and start just shooting away.
I always envisioned this shot, along with the others, being used on greeting cards, postcards, calendars, and that sort of thing, I suppose it just has that kind of look & feel to me. So that being said, I will make them to be purchased as such. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do!

The blue is amazing! I love how you have the road coming from near the center of the photo and slopping around. It draws the eyes in perfectly

Wow John! The blue hue in this photo is outstanding. I love when the snow sticks to trees and freezes like that, and you captured it phenomenally!

Same here. For whatever reason almost any time I saw this phenomenon I didn't have time to stop and it melted later.

Whoa the blueness...
I've been searching for blue photoes for days, because I love the colour - and this is the one I've been missing all the time.
Very well done.

Same here with photo manipulations, if I get even a little detail off from the sketch I have in mind, it's back to square one

Lucky you! I have never been able to get a shot like this either. Probably because when the opportunity does present itself, my camera is at home...LOL The blue in the sky is amazing. Just a beautiful shot.
