    I really like the first one. I also think that the small frame you added helps define the picture and may be worth adding to the rest of the pictures to help define the edge of the photos, Jeff

    They are all excellent but I love the first and fourth ones!

    Re: Donner Part 2

    Thanks for all the comments.
    Grandpa, thanks for the advice. I will do that for now on. I think it does help add to the picture.

    Thanks again

    Incredible softness on that mtn. The top two are the best though the bottom one - which looks like the 2nd from top but softer - is in its own category, smooth as silk. The Silky Mountain maybe. Very nice day of shooting!

    Re: Donner Part 2

    Beautiful shots. The first is breathtaking.

    I keep thinking I'm noticing a little CA in #3, which detracts a bit.

    Wonderful shots overall.

    these are fantastic. Did you burn the clouds in the first photo?

    Snow looks like cream, this is how those scenes were meant to be captured. well done!
