Beachcomber, the words certainly give that photograph so much meaning; the photograph also gives the words meaning. Really enjoyed viewing this. Thank you so much for sharing.

Wow, that is a beautiful photograph. I love the subtle colors in it. And the subject is so universal - it makes me think of Wyoming. Thanks for sharing!

What a beautiful photo, Beach. I love the fence, the grass poking up through snow, and especially the wonderful subtle colors of the sunset reflected on the snow. The winter light is amazing! Thanks for sharing this one with us!

This one is quite the study, at first glance it looks pretty simple. The longer I look at it I notice the complex manner of the light blanketing the scene. You were definately at the right spot at the right time here Steve. Happy Holidays to you and the family!
