This is very nice! A good example of the statement: "Good Pictures can be planned, Great Pictures just happen." A very well captured snap shot, Steve.

....and when you were about to push the shutter you said 'turn left' and he did. Good capture Steve.

Thanks jiro. This photo was actually one of the tougher one's to edit. It took me at least a hour to get it the way i wanted. Shooting in the snow makes for some high contrast images. I almost needed to bracket the shot, but got away with a middle of the road exposure and then made two edits and blended them together to get the final image. Sometimes a simple snapshot can be ALOT of work.
