A Recent hike up to Lake Twenty Two after fresh snow, not only was it good for the soul but good for some new material, here the outlet stream pooled against some snow covered rocks.

Slight adjustment to the cooler side of White balance in Lightroom 3 was enough to give this image a cooler feel than the original that was shot in automatic white balance.

Goats: something very majestic about Mt Goats, they are so nimble for such stout creatures, what they can do on a rock wall defies logic.

I've been wanting to shoot Mountain Goats for a long time and a trail at Logan Pass in Glacier NP Montana provided me a great opportunity. They pretty much will pose for the camera, knowing you'll get out of the way if you happen to be standing in the next spot they want to browse on.

Shooting them in the shade of the overhanging cliffs was a bonus as their white coats don't get blown out by the sun, these guys had already molted away their beards, which was disappointing, but gives me reason to seek them out again.
