Ahaha well the Mayan calendar is about to expire isn't it? Maybe we're in for a shock afterall.
Thanks for the comments too guys, I'm very glad I ventured out that night.
Oh and Erno - that shot is beautiful mate, well done.

Great shots of the storm Ben. I really like the composite, quite a dramatic view.
I've got some time today to enjoy the snow that came here in Switzerland during the last week. It was a very nice morning with all the trees wearing their shiny new white robe. Here's a shot I took with my 450D and 15-85.

Living in the Bay Area, I guess it was about time that I tried this:

I keep coming back to this site for sunrise shots in the winter, mainly because it's easy to get to and there is always a patch of water that doesn't freeze over (probably due to an underground spring).

Arnt....I really like both of the last shots. The GG shot is classic. The sunset shot is a real nice composition....has a great feel too it.
Jonathan....if I lived near that location, I'd be there all the time too....another beauty....
Tounis - I do not know how I missed your post, but that is a great shot. The B&W, the clouds, the composition... everything just works very well.
Arnt - Nice set. It is always a good day when you can find a two-for.
Jonathan - I always wondered if that lake was spring fed because no mater how cold you said it was out, there was always open water. It was either that, or the photography god's would open the ice up for you when every you showed up (but that seemed less likely). Another well done, well set up shot.

A long hike in but well worth the view. I'm still learning to properly use PS to blend the seams and fill in edges, but was happy with this result. The Needles district is a fantastic location to backpack. We spent 3 nights in Chesler Park area last March.
