I concur. These are my favourites. It's odd I didn't even notice the scale of the mountains (when I was kiting) until I saw these pictures - as if they were photoshop-ed in.

A/M/FP: Thanks for the comments. Glad everyone is enjoying the snow-capped mountain shots! :D

The telephoto lens will compress the perspective (make the mountains look larger and closer than they would to your eye in person). This is more the way your eye sees it. When I showed this one to my family they said, "You were sailing in the city?" :lol:

If anyone does want to save a picture(s), here is how to get a copy for yourself. Click here.
Scroll around until you see a picture you want.
Right click on the picture and it should open in a new window.
Right click on the picture again and it should offer you sizes - select "original" and it should open in a new window.
Right click on the picture again and "save picture as..." and save it where you want.

If you reuse them somewhere else, please provide a photo credit (as Alton has done). 8-) Thank you.

Hope that makes sense! :-)
