Layers of Light

Another one from my last outing. I hiked over 900 inches to get to this spot with 176 pounds on my kankles. Thanks to Jeremy Cram's guide dog service for "marking" the spot for my tripod! :rolleyes:

The foreground light seemed to change from your earlier image, and the layers work here. I like the contrast you added to Mount Hood for this image too.

Beautiful Rick, especially the pastels in the BG. I might crop just a tad off the bottom, but that's very minor. Too bad you didn't go a little further - at 910 inches it can be declared a full expedition. :biggrin:

Beautiful shot, Rick. Great subject, wonderful light and beautiful colors. I kind of like Bill's crop suggestion with just a little off the bottom, and yes, that is pretty minor. Like this alot!
Jeremy's guide dog picked a good spot!

900 inches :eek: Remind me never to go hiking with you. :frown: I don't care if there is a scene like this at the end of it. 200 inches is about my limit and I always seem to find some good to shoot in about that range. What's a kankle :confused:

I prefer the in your face flowers of the first shot, but this is nice too.

Personally I think I like this one more than your previous post. The foreground light brings the scene to life for me, wonderful image.

Beautiful, Rick! I have no suggestions for ways to improve this image.
