This is the first fresh and new material I shoot this year. The day started cold and rainy, and certainly ended that way too, but as I have written before, that shouldn't stop a photographer from finding a subject. These mountains served perfectly.
Fog banks were rolling by, way out in the mountain slopes, encircling parts of them, while the peaks struggled to maintain dominance.
