Mount

The 14,158-foot peak above Ridgway, Colorado, photographed in winter from the Dallas Divide on State Highway 62. Sneffels has a long, unbroken west face that catches the last red light of the day for several minutes after the sun has dropped, while the foreground sits already in cold blue shadow. Photographers call that interval alpenglow. It lasts about eight minutes in midwinter, shorter the further the year drifts from solstice. The snow takes the colour straight, no foliage to compete. Named in 1874 by the Hayden Survey for Snæfellsjökull, the Icelandic volcano in Jules Verne's Journey to the Center of the Earth. The view has not changed in 150 years.

Slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, in our family studio in Knoxville, Tennessee.
