Sunrise Indian Paint w/Lupine
Mt Rainier vicinity....Shot this about three weeks ago at Sunrise. Last Sunday I did a quick spin around Naches Loop at sunset. Hazy. Never did take out the camera...the lupines were OK..not an exceptional year. I think the heat had an impact.

Wow, tallk about shallow depth of field, lol! My eyes keep trying to bring that background into focus! Love the detail of the paintbrush Ken, but almost hurts to look at!

Very pretty scene and I like the exposure on this one. It does feel a tad flat, like it could use a liittle more contrast. The color looks very accurate to me.

This is a cool shot Ken, I like the bottom three layers best, and would consider taking off the top. The mountain top does provide perspective, but it's too far from the flowers.
