Wow, the glow on the grass is awesome and contrasts so well with the cooler tones of the rest of the photo. My only nit pick is that I wish you couldn't see that top of the house just above the grass line. Go use a bulldozer

I'm rather jealous of your views.

auddii, that was my very thought about this one, those new houses can distract so. I will go back out to this spot on another morning at the same time I shot this, as the sun for this one is everything. I will see if I can catch this one at another vantage point to rid the photo of these house tops.

Very nice capture.I agree, the light on the grass just sets this one off.

Thank you MichaelW and Stargazer, the time of this photo was 9:15am and the sun had come out this morning. I could see from a distance the shadows being cast on the mountain, for light and dark snow, and giving better definition where the draws go up the mountain. I told my wife I need a better place for a shot of Big Mountain, and knew of this place, where the grass and old barns are as it is up for auction and vacant.

I shall return
