Yes...two Thrillers today because in the 232 pics for this search word, there was no sufficiently bad pic that I felt I could really hang the Chiller tag on it, and so I figured that on a Friday you'd prefer to see a couple of great shots anyway. Two things about this shot...its totally impossbile without HDR (the exposure is great both on the mountains and under the overhanging leaves), and its got that just-painted-in-oils look about it. Three things...I love the long shadows. They put you in both a place and a time of day. Of course it's even better viewed in large.
