Pink Snow

My husband took this snap of the mountains while driving home from work. These mountains are Northeast of town. The snow is reflecting the colors of the sunset to the West. In higher mountain ranges, I believe when this happens at sunrise or sunset, they call it alpenglow.

  1. Wow this is just so beautiful. Being from a country where we call a tall hill "the sky mountain" seing real mountains takes my breath away.
    You have so many great shots on this blog - thanks for sharing :)

    Have a nice day!

  3. I think a lot of the time, the alpenglow is prettier than the sunset. :)
