Ruby Mountains, Nevada

My girlfriend and I recently completed a nearly cross country road trip that I brought only my 645 gear on (this trip also prompted me to sell my Sony A7s, but thats another story). Our first stop was the Ruby Mountains in north eastern Nevada. A cold storm had just rolled through leaving a blanket of snow on the higher elevations, making for some amazing scenes.
My ability with film is not quite to the point where I can do these mountains justice, but hopefully these images convey some of their beauty!
Please give me any critique you can, just keep it constructive .

I'd say you are doing quite well. Experiment with filters etc. You might find a yellow/green filter might be of use. Your film and developer combo is a great one as well as your camera so you well on your way.

Thanks! I should mention both these frames had an orange filter. I need to fine tune my developing for the D100/DDX combo a fair bit. Thanks again!

I would say this looks spot on to my eye. The cropping in the second image is wonderful. Well done
