Thanks guys. It was weird and yet fun at the same time photographing without using a tripod with the Olympus system.
Beautiful photos!pvstoy said:We were able to take the Olympus M1X and the 12-100mm lens to Mono Lake California to try it out.
Mono Lake tufa formations after the storm. After Thursday's snowstorm Jan. 17, we got up at 5 a.m. Friday and drove several hours on icy roads (all the way) to see Mono Lake in the snow. The access road is 5 miles in from U.S. Hwy. 395 and it is plowed only part way, so if you go after a bigger storm, you will need skis or snowshoes. Unlike the summer months when it is mobbed, we did not see another person viewing the tufa! Though we were there later in the morning not at early light, it was nice to see snow on the Tufa.
The area has also sand tufa that used to be underwater when the lake was higher, but are now far from the lake shore; the largest ones can be approximately 3 feet tall. For those unfamiliar with the area, the mountains in the background are the Sierra peaks on the northwest edge of Yosemite National Park.
We have been setting up a web page, Only been thinking about it for 9 years!! But here is in the progress stage. https://www.patrickpeveyphotography.com/

Yes! What I recognized was Stroud Peak - the pyramid on the left. We love that part of the Winds.jasonwantsout said:That is Bow Mountain viewed from Elbow Lake in the Wind River Range.
