I LOVE SUNSET SHOTS, WITH THE SUN'S RAYS BREAKING FORTH
  
OLD FORD IN A FIELD FULL OF CARS AS THE SUN SETS - THE COLORS AND TEXTURES ARE WHY I PHOTOGRAPH THESE OLD VEHICLES
  
APPROACHING THE PYRAMID RIDGE OF MT.RAINIERS EASTERN SUMMIT: PHOTO TAKEN WITH A 24-70 WIDE ANGLE CANON EF L SERIES LENS-WE ARE REALLY CLOSE AND THE CLOUDS WERE CLOSE ENOUGH TO FREEZE ON THE SURFACE OF MY CAMERA WITH THE HELI OPEN DOOR
 
'WEST SIDE OF MT.RAINIER' - SOME OF THE BEST RECORDED SIGHTINGS OF BIG FOOT HAVE BEEN SEEN IN THIS AREA , AS WELL AS THE WHOLE CASCADE MOUNTAIN RANGE SYSTEM
  
"THE WIND SWEPT CORNICES", ON THE EAST SIDE OF MT.RAINIER MUST HAVE AWESOME AVALANCHES WHEN THE CORNICES BREAK LOOSE
