Pretty dramatic looking scene here Robert for a summer time shot. Next to Shasta I would think Rainier has been photographed a zillion times, but they all seem to have a slightly different twist under varing conditions. I know Mike Dawson and Marc Adamus have worked the PNW area for years. When I first met them they already had some strong portfoilos going from locations like Rainier, Hood, Crater Lake, and numerous other PNW areas too. :wink:

Well in those days shadows were shadows and this is nice. I would go with a little less black here by trimming the scene a little. From here that looks like an easy climb but I know it isn't.

I like this a lot... especially with just a little cropped off the top, so that the blue space roughly matches/mirrors the black negative space below. Good stuff!
