This is a subtle photo taken on Thompson Pass, Alaska at the edge of a thick bank of fog as the sun rose above the hillside and started burning through. I called it "Smooth Transitions" because it fades from blue to yellow, shadow to bright light, fine sharp detail in front to soft veiled shapes in the rear, etc. Lots of transitions!

It's easier to discern the features in the large version.

Yep, looks like the famous image of "a white bird in snow"...
This is an interesting view, that I'm not sure qualifies as high key because of the tonal variation from left to right across the frame. The subtle details show up very well in the larger view including a the very gentle peak to sky transition. All of the subtlety makes for a finely mysterious and mystical view. The lighting is great. Very well seen and presented, Gary.
This is simply great! Subtle is the right word for it. It is a bit of a mysterious photo, and it takes some time to decipher what it is what you're looking at, and even than you're not really sure. Great job you did here!
