I have only been to the Rockies twice in my 55 years, and this brings a tear of joy to my eye.........

Seriously, thanks a ton everyone. Really appreciated. I worked hard on capturing this one and putting it together.

This looks amazing on a monitor, which I have a feeling doesn't even do this image a bit of justice. I can't even imagine how great it would look printed.
Thanks dude. Im really looking forward to printing this. I'm kinda torn between printing it as a 54" acrylic (the largest I can do up here), or a 60" metallic paper emulsified(?) canvas though. Tough choices haha

Justin you love this spot!

it is nice to see it time and time again under different conditions. This shot is much more moody and "dirty" due to the light and also the rocks and brush poking through the snow.

Thanks Sneaky. I prefer "busy", instead of dirty

Up close all the little specs of stuff add a lot of interest to the foreground.

And to Scott/Nigel, thanks for the comments and compliments. I do feel the same way, and I wish that rock has a different, more concave shape like the one on the left. I still feel it helps balance the shot, but I do see your point. I just like the added details for prints, and the 2:1 aspect ratio.

wow, great light, love the the FOV and the composition....didn't read through all the comments but what did you shoot it with (lens) and is this a multi-stitch?

Thanks guys. This was a single row stitch, of 8 vertical positions shot with my 17mm TS-E lens. Once the stitch was put together, I cropped out some of the left side and a bit of the sky for the composition I wanted. In the future, I will probably shoot an even larger stitch, to have more room to play with. There is also more distortion near the edges once put together, so cropping those areas out keeps quality the absolute highest.

Justin, from your description of the journey, this is a place I'll likely never see with my own eyes. So I'm appreciative of the heavenly rendering. A piece of work like this makes me realize how much I over-value the light and patterns in the sky itself, and not the wonderful light cast around a landscape.

It's all been said - a gorgeous shot! Perhaps the trip was kismet and this shot was just waiting for the right person to take it.
