Here’s another image from my recent backpacking trip. Once the sun peeked over the horizon, it was hard to avoid getting my shadow in the frame. I decided to take advantage of this and create a photo where you could really see the silhouette of the tripod and me. Hopefully it says “nature photography”. Photographed on August 31, 2008.

I’ve always liked the amazing rock formations of North Sister. Just imagine the geologic forces involved in creating something that looks this way. Photographed on August 31, 2008.

North Sister glows pink as it is struck by the morning sun. It was so cold overnight that the stream in the foreground is iced over. Photographed on August 31, 2008.
