 from 20,000+ feet. Took this on a test flight over to Moses Lake in eastern Washington State. The Cascade mountains this year have a phenominal amount of snow, and I really loved the contrasts within this BW conversion. Probably out on the edge with this, but I still like the variations in this shot, the shadows from the ridgeline, the highlights with the snow, as well as the textures. To me, not a bad shot taken through a 2" thick window, with not the best lens, and moving at over 400 miles an hour...

There is so much in this shot to draw the viewer in. So much detail and play between light and dark. It's a very interesting shot, one that is worthy of a place on the wall. My fav of the challenge thus far. 8
