Fantastic set. The snow adds an interesting element for sure.


@40Driggs Thanks for your comment! You’re right, the snow adds so much, the place felt new to me!

Best,

Very nice set of images. You are obviously very fulfilled.


@Burnard Thanks for your comment! Honestly one of the most fulfilling shoots of my life. I feel very humbled, and full of grattitude, to have been there (or rather here, as I have not been able to get myself to depart Zion yet!).

Best regards,
Ross

Beautiful, all of them. Blizzard at Temple of Sinawava is really special though - the wind driven snow gives it an impressionistic feel.


Thanks much Jim! It was crazy to be shooting in that blowing wet snow but glad I did it!

Cheers,

Great set of images Ross. You did an incredible job with the opportunity presented by the snow storm.

I had similar luck last year so know exactly how you feel about Zion.

@1bwana1

Hi Steve, thanks so much for viewing and giving positive feedback, I really appreciate it! I love to hear you also had a snow opportunity at Zion - isn’t it amazing to experience? I love snow, whether it be in the PNW where I spent most of my life or in Ohio where I live now, but it’s another level of special at Zion IMO.

Cheers,
Ross

Beautiful. I don't have that kind of photo skills but was in a similar situation with the Grand Canyon. I've wanted to see it in winter snow conditions. So I have been checking the forecasts, etc., and took the opportunity to get to the South Rim, getting to Williams Monday, then a couple of days at the South Rim. The storm came in, lots of changing conditions, and a fair amount of snow. So I had a good time and got some tourist quality pictures I like but these really are tremendous.


@Craig Gillette thank you so much for your kind words, and I love that you also were in the Southwest and pursued this particular storm! I'm sure the snow added some real eye candy to the already great Grand Canyon.

Cheers,
Ross

This trip was amazing. I grew up and live in the Los Angeles area, so snow is typically seen from afar or shared with several thousand other folks crowding up a few narrow roads in the local mountains. I'm plugging through my files and will share a few before too long.
