I kept hoping the weather would break and give me a clear shot of the east side of Mt Timpanogous. I left early in the morning and by 9AM I was trying to find the shot. Of the several hours I spent, and the 20+ photos I took, this turned out to be my favorite.

The sun was about 45 degrees up from the horizon to me back and left.

I like the blue of the shadows.Perhaps it is the resolution, but it doesn;t seem quite sharp. As for composition - all that deep blue sky is marvelous, but I'd include more foreground.

Makes me want to breathe in the fresh air. Beautiful mountain landscape. I love the incredible shadows casted on the mountain.

When I first saw this one I said WOW. The lighting is absolutely marvelous and the exposure near-flawless. I love the sky, a very strong and solid blue, love it, good luck!

Beautiful! Love the dark blue (must have used a polarizer). Very nice.

Beatiful image. Perhaps, the shadow is distracting the attention.

well composed and well exposed. The snow looks good, retaining some detail and the blue sky is rich. Composition is good, but onyl bad thing is the huge shadows cast onto the mountain. Would love to see a B&W version!!!!

I know this place, back side of Timp. (I grew up in Orem) Beautifully done and no Fog! My daughter is going to BYU and she has been suffering in the cold fog for weeks.
I might have cropped out the lower part leaving just bright snow.
