Thinking of Winter

The Gallatin in Winter. Image appeared in American Angler, Winter 2010.

Moving this weekend to an apartment here in Austin.  Temporary quarters, begone!  After breaking my own personal record of living out of duffel, I can have my books again.

Slogging in the 105-degree heat (and moving) has made me have home on the mind, though.  Especially in winter.

This image is of the Gallatin River (Bozeman-ites will likely know the spot) during a frigid -25 morning.  One of those days when I didn’t turn the heater on in the Suby very far so as not to cause condensation when I took the camera out to shoot.  The camera body also sported a fleece Buff to help with temperature changes.

The colors are untouched – aside from a bit of vignetting, this is how the image came off the LCD screen.

You can’t make light like that up.  And it’s sure as hell worth early mornings in the cold.
