You don't concentrate on risks. You concentrate on results. No risk is too great to prevent the necessary job from getting done.

Nice shot. If I wasn't already sick of the snow and the cold weather I'd make the trip to Valle and GCN to get some snow pictures.

Thanks, it was worth the trip and braving the -1°F the morning we were in Willilams.

Thanks, I've been after this shot for a bit too.  Ashlie is the one who really pushed me to drive up north and get it.  I was telling her about taking photos of helicopters in the snow, and she said, "Well, I have two days off, let's go!"  So we did.
