What an awesome weekend Ron and I had up there. The conditions were excellent for just about the entire time we were there.
I just realized that I took over 1,300 pictures in those two days. Here are some more of the keepers.

    Your Naches Peak shot turned out really well! When I took a shot from there I forgot to increase the depth of field so I didn't have Naches in sharp enough focus. I also like the low perspective on Tipsoo and you managed to get a shot with the pink cloud and pink peak at the same time. I love the abstract quality of #3, it would also work as a B&W. And obviously the last two are great, I love how the mountain had like three different peak light periods all within 20 minutes of each other, in addition to the puffy cloud/blue sky a few hours before. Can't wait to get back. Hopefully the mosquitoes will die by then.

    Danny,

    You fellas obviously had a great weekend shooting. All these shots are very nice, but #2 just grabs me. Strange enough, it looks like an audio track on a monitor :D

    Fantastically beautiful images once again, Danny. I'm totally digging the 1st image in this series, although all are special. clap.gifthumb.gif
    Shoot in RAW because memory is cheap but memories are priceless.

    Ok, I must say it though, the cloud in front of the top of the mountain is IN THE WAY.
    Still a great imagewings.gif

    #5 is the winner of the bunch for me. Great tones and that fog clutter is very unique.

    Danny, these are simply beautiful--every one! I want a coffee table book--or maybe I could just paper my walls with these and then drool over the beauty of the mountains . . .

    I so enjoyed this set!!

    Really really nice Danny, 4 & 5 are my favorites, quickly perused your site, then bookmarked it so I can draw inspiration, really great photography there my friend.

    Dude, #3 is the best shot of the group for me. Like the abstract feel of it, and there is a lot of interest in the shot. Kind of mysterious. I saw a shot like this from another photographer at a art festival a few weeks back, and the guy had some amazing stuff from every iconic place in the states, but the shot that did it for me looked much like #3.

    Great job on the rest, they are all great, but cool to see something different.

    They're all lovely shots, but my preference is #1. I like a bit of foreground interest in a photograph and that one fulfils that requirement very nicely.

    Wow! All of them are gorgeous, but #4 is my favorite.
