A snow-capped Fuji together with lavender is an unusual sight. Comments welcome as usual.  HOSTED PHOTO please log in to view hosted photos in full size. Craig

But I looked at it again, and now I'm very impressed. There's a lot of subtlely going on here and Fuji's hazy appearance only accentuates that. Great shot. Thank you for not closing the window on me Adam! This shot actually looks better as a large print than it does on the web, but you can have an idea. Craig
