Rising early this morning, I gathered my camera equipment and tripod. Heading up the road to a hillside view - I had just five or six minutes before the sun made its peek above the horizon!
I like this shot because it includes the dawn's blanket of fog in the valley below as well... and, fifty plus miles in the distance is Mount Rainier
A recent drive near the west of Silver Lake in Washington revealed this view of Mount Rainier, one of this state's most treasured sites. This particular photo was shot some fifty miles away from this, one of my favorites!
As spring approaches, the leaves are starting to sprout on the trees; while Mt. St. Helens remains snow covered.
This view is seen from the south side of the mountain, while the north side is where the volcano gave way and a cubic mile of earth landslid and blew during the eruption of May 18, 1980.
A visit to Mt. Rainier in Washington State is an experience you truly will enjoy. Its beauty as it rises 14,410 feet above sea level is one of North America's most beautiful places.
My family and I enjoyed such a trip in the fall of 2013!
