Trillium, Clouds and Hood

A couple of weeks ago my wife and I were driving back from an outing in the MHNF. As we driving on the south east side of Mt. Hood, I noticed some weird looking clouds surrounding Hood. I decided to take a little detour and head down to Trillium Lake by the dam. I realize this area has been shot to death but I just couldn't resist with the clouds as they were. I also captured some close up shots of the Mountain with the clouds engulfing the mountain that looked pretty cool.

Great shot, Erik! It's a bit soft on my monitor, but otherwise gorgeous!

I'm pretty sure this is the same lenticular cloud that I shot with my pocket camera over on Lolo Pass road - a bit later in the day. Very cool!

That is a really cool shot Erik. Wonder what kind of BW this would make?

Great to see a post from you, Erik. Nice shot! Love the clouds and the reflection in the lake. Way to follow your hunches-- good detour!

Eric, I am a sucker for clouds so this shot really stands out to me!!!!!

Excellent detour!!!!

Nice Eric, those are some amazing clouds. I’ve seen them, but have never had the opportunity to capture them.. Great job.

Beautiful scene. I like how the higher clouds seem to be racing toward the mtn. Looks like it could use a slight boost in contrast.
