Thanks Mark, it was blowing a gale up there today and bitterly cold!

Excellent set of photos, Matt. Compositionally I like nos.1, 5, and 8. And the sky in no.12 is gorgeous. Nicely done. And a very merry Christmas to you as well.

Hi Matt, I loved the images , very nice place indeed. Best wishes

They are all great, spectacular shots. Gorgeous scenery and amazing topography. Should I *have* to pick a favorite, I would go with #9.

[Loose Canon]

Awesome country Matt.

Merry Christmas to you!

Excellent shots, Matt. They brought back some memories. In my youth (?) I used to go for runs along that ridge. It's a more sedate walk now.

Thanks for all the comments, hope everyone had a good Christmas!

Great set. I like the black & white #5 but I must say the water holes don't look quite ready for a swim based on the local weather forecast. Shouldn't there be snow at this time of year?
Like #11 as well. The tiny person gives it some scale.
