A while back ago, I took a few images of this mountain, and they were not widely popular. However, I still had in my mind the perfect image. Did I get it tonight? Closer then last time, thats for sure. One of the problems last time was too much "close" foreground. I say about half the image was kind of like a little hill before the mountain. I corrected that by walking about a quarter of a mile into the trail. SO that below me was the valley that stands between the hill I am standing and the mountain I am capturing. Problem two, when I drive home at night, the HUGE mountain behind the one you see, towers over this one. But when you are on this trail, they almost look the same hight. Because of the angle and all. So the whole image did not work out as well as I wanted it to. But tonight, there was enough clouds to cover the second mountain and yet, few enough to see there is actually a second mountain! And, I did the hike, all in all, I am happy with the image! I did do a pano crop on this. No, I did not take the time to take MANY images to stich together. Unfortunatly, I did not think of that while there! So, I will settle for taking a wide image and only showing you the top half. Why only the top half? Because it was HEAVY shadow down below. Kind of distracting on the complete view. I know, I also wish I had a bit more of the sky. It seamed that my wide lens was too wide and my mid lens was not wide enough. Too many mm between the two. :) Eventually, I would love to fill that gap in. (Can easily be done with a full frame sensor camera!) Oh, but then I would not be able to use my wide lens. Something to think about! Please enjoy!
