Morning Mist

Photographed by Shane Morrison

In early January I entered Lamar Valley just before dawn. The temperature was 22 below Fahrenheit (-30 C) and a freezing mist filled the valley coating the trees and willows along the river in hoarfrost. As I set up my camera and tripod on a hill the sun crested the mountains to the east illuminating the ridgeline and projecting a bit of warmth toward the frozen river valley below.
