Three consecutive ribbons - must be some sort of a record. I helped - well sort of - and anyway didn't hurt. Beautiful shot of a favorite place but it's a couple thousand miles from home.

It's in Grand Teton National Park, so the elevation is pretty high. They have gotten more snow this year than any other year over the past 30 years. Jackson, Wyoming is the closest town to it. It was taken on June 7.

Makes me cold looking at this!! I never would have guessed it as a statue until art said something -- but now it's pretty obvious. :P

Congrats on the yellow!

Congrats on the great image and the high placement.

But I feel that you have once again fooled us and submitted a photo that is tricking us. I want PROOF that this was taken in January!!!
