Clouds and Mount Shuksan

scole

The next to last weekend of the ski season at Mount Baker brought a conveyor belt of clouds streaming across the upper slopes and summit of Mount Shuksan. I made one run on the slopes before feeling compelled to hurry back to my truck to take some photos before conditions changed too much..







On my way home, I stopped off to re-shoot this. My original attempt suffered somewhat due to snow & frost which detracted from the composition. This was shot slightly underexposed intentionally since it helped define the edges of the huge cedar in the background. I did have to do some minor burning on the extreme righthand side to better define the edge of the cedar's trunk..





Lastly, sometimes old ski lift chairs find a new life..



Thanks for looking..
