I have been printing a lot of my work lately and favoring the larger images. This 44 x 88 inch photo of Mt Whitney is like being there! The size of the mountains is truly lifelike, as I saw it while standing at Lower Boy Scout Lake.
On our camping trip to Mt Rainier, my buddy and I got up at 5:15am in order to get to Reflection Lakes in time for sunrise.
When we first showed up, the lake was completely socked in by clouds and we considered bailing. The fog coming off the water was enough to warrant staying a little bit.
When arrived in the second parking lot, we noticed a lot of cars. Apparently there was a photography class going on, so we took our place on the edge of the class, slightly away from everyone. Ended up meeting another flickr user (you should check out his shot here pdxsafariguy).
The clouds cleared for about 20 minutes, just as the sun was rising, and then quickly closed back up leaving the view totally obstructed. It was a beautiful sunrise, and we were lucky enough that the elements aligned to take a couple shots.
The “riding saddle peaks” of Mt Norikuradake (乗鞍岳), which got its name due to the shape of its peaks that look like a horse saddle. At 3026m it is the third tallest peak of the Northern Japan Alps and Japan’s third tallest volcano, after Mt. Fuji and Mt. Ontake, belonging of course to Japan's 100 famous mountains. It is considered to be the easiest to to climb among the mountains in Japan that are above 3000m, in part thanks to the buses that run almost as far as the summit, with one of Japan's highest roads leading to Norikura Bus Terminal at an altitude of 2700m.
横手山 (2,300m)
Mt.Yokote is the highest mountain in Shigakogen.
And this highland is the most big ski resort in Japan.

Mt. Vífilsfell (655m) is the main landmark in east seen from Reykjavík. The photo is taken from Hellisheidi moor at dawn. The day surely became beautiful.The moon is shining over small peaks named Ólafsskardshnúkar.
Mt. Vífilsfell (Vífil's mountain) is named by the slave Vífill, who was Iceland's first settler's slave.
I had researched and wrote down (on my phone) all the places I wanted to go at Mt. Rainier based on photos on flickr, maps and location, etc. I ended up going to none of them. Hah go figure. Well maybe one, but that was the Paradise area which was more a tourist stop than scenery. So instead of a beautiful view of green fields and a lake with Mt. Rainier reflected in the water, here's this black and white image.
Explored! #218
This tree (on the right) is the reason I took this hike. It can be seen from down below on campus and has always looked pretty nice. Turns out that the viewing angle from campus is about the best angle you can get of this tree, and this was the only decent composition I could find while up on the hill. But there was plenty of other scenery to make it a great hike otherwise.
I just got back from a week in the Rockies with two of my Red Lobster friends. The east ridge of Edith Cavell (the left skyline) was a line that always attracted me but we never got around to climbing it. A little late now, but at least I can pay homage to it in graphic form. :-)
Last year a section of hanging glacier near the tip of the tall tree on the left hand side of the image came off and careened into the lake below. A tidal wave ensued that swept down the valley toward the parking lot, leaving a huge debris channel for us to view that extends to just below the parking lot. Despite warning signs, people continue to walk around the lake below the hanging ice cliffs. Darwinism at work again?
As always, thoughtful feedback, constructive criticisms, and suggestions are always appreciated. What do you like about it? What might you do differently and why?

Volcanic Mt. Iliamna, 46 miles west across Alaska's Cook Inlet. This shot was taken from a bluff on the Kenai Peninsula near Happy Valley, a bit north of Homer.
