    Captured this image on Guanella Pass in Colorado. I love heading up there looking for these birds. Thanks for looking.

    Very nice shot with fine details on the bird. Love the composition as well.
    I feel a little blue/purple tone on the whites.

    Colorado has alot to offer a photographer! I like your comp and it seems to me that you did dial back the blues in selective colors??? I am curious however. :)

    Thanks for all the comments! Like I said, I love strapping on a pair of snowshoes trying to
    find the birds!
