Description

Its right at the top of the gondola and the view is awesome.

I really like the way the snow has been whipped up and is mixing with the light to give such an interesting and eye-catching atmosphere to the photo.

wow amazing image!!...I'm sure this one will end up being one of your biggest sellers to tourists.
...maybe try selling one to the restaurant, or donate a print to them under the condition they have your business cards under it, and promotion helps .

Yes but there will be 20 feet here before its over.
A nearby town gets about 50 feet in the mountains around it. Like their ski hill 50 foot trees are just little bumps showing!

Thank you!
See you can go out and brave the elements when its the only choice
It was nasty but I took 20 minutes and grabbed as many shots as I could.
I think I have a few. Need time to edit now. Probably start in the morning again.

yea.. I cant wait till its all over. The wedding is the most stressful. Suppose to be doing the official photography for it and no one is telling me anything... like where they are at what time and such like. Hard to plan anything when you dont know what and when you can do anything lol. I am stressing like hell... and next time someone ask me (friends or family included in that) to do the shots my answer will be NOOOOO capital letters. xxx

Yeah people don't understand when I say no. They say at least its something but its more trouble than its worth. I have enough stress in my life.
I'm sure it will all work out. Try not to worry. It will fall together.

Thanks for all of your encouragement Cindy. Its a long road but I guess I chose the road less traveled too when I think about it. Of all the new careers to choose I chose this one.
It would help if I knew the business.
I took up photography when I knew nothing about it. A year ago. I only knew I needed to share these amazing sites so I proceeded to learn how. Then it was editing, printing and now the store. Its been a long climb. I feel it will work but its sure taking its time. I am gaining a group of followers slowly and its all starting to spark sales here and there.
My book is very well liked but no one wants to buy it online and I can't stock it. Its stupid little hindrances like that that are getting in my way.
I can get 100 books for about 40% of the cost of 1. And I believe 100 would sell pretty fast but its a lot of cash right now So instead I sold 2

Carl, I still think you should have a part time job, continue your work, but don't make it your whole life. Time is a hard mistress, so try and enjoy life today, be thankful for what you have and not what you don't, reaching to far will tip you over and I want you to be around a long time, the hill is high but with one step at a time you will get there.
I will be behind you urging you on. You have a good wife and children, hold them tight, because that is what life is about.
We all struggle on the money issue me included, but when I let go and let my Higher Power take over, he usually does a good job. Many Blessings in the coming year. You will make it.

The problem is there are not enough hours to do what I need to do. If I get a part time job it will only slow production to a crawl. I know what you mean but I think we need to suffer a little longer. I can apply 100% to this right now. I'm focused more than ever and i don't want to lose that. I obsess on things and a new job would consume a lot more than the part time hours I get paid for. Besides in this town that would mean all my time used up for a very small paycheck. I think I need to keep doing what I'm doing.
Thanks Cindy
