Pioneer Peak near Wasilla, Alaska is very difficult to photograph in the winter. The sun rises from behind the mountain leaving everything else in shadow. I have been experimenting with HDR and Photomatix to see if I can blend this range of highlights and shadows.

I have a hard time processing HDR with snow in it. The snow tends towards the dark side looking dirty. If someone knows of a good resource with examples of HDR and snow I would appreciate hearing about it.

My sister-in-law competed in the 4 dog mushing category at Montana Creek last weekend. They also had some 2 dog and 1 dog skijoring races. I wish my Siberian Husky would pull like these dogs.
