Yes indeed. It is a nice change to see a snowy and cool photograph on a hot summer's day! You have captured the essence very well! What a splendid picture. We still have a little bit snow up on the high spots of the mountains and if I travel high enough, I will still come across the snow but I just don't have the time to go quite that high yet. But our summer's our short here and soon the heat will stop and next thing I will soon complain about is it is too cold and we have sooo much snow!! =)

Snow looks so beautiful. But sitting here in the middle of our very warm winter, I think I'd rather be here.

Lovely photo.

It really is refreshing photo on these hot days but it is also really beautiful. I like this composition of green line of firs with white range of mountain peaks covered with white snow and then all wrapped in white clouds while the blue sky watching this beautiful scene attentively.
