Last week I was first tempted to fly my drone up by this nice thunderhead over the mountains. I really like the glimpse of the mountains beneath the clouds and the veil of rain. I landed and waited a bit before taking off again to look toward Lake Stevens when the color got better. Not my...

Another shot found in my iPhone from last year. Deception Pass State Park, WA

Whitehorse Mt. on the right

I recently cleared my iPhone photos to reorganize them and put back just the best. Of course I backed up to an external HD, and while culling out the good/meaningful shots I found a few that merited opening in ACR and Photoshop to edit, esp. with Silver FX which gives so much more control than...

Another drone view from above my house, note Mt. Rainier behind. I'd moved this folder off my lap-top into an external drive to make room for more pictures and forgot about it until yesterday. On another note I just sold my first drone shot to a neighbor down at the lake who saw one I posted on...

Another view of Mt. Pugh, this time at 400mm.

Our Focus this Friday is on Landscapes from the State of Washington! I realize this might limit participation a bit, but for those who have never been to Washington State, let this be a teaser as to why you should go. Add your photos to this Thread please. Jim I will start with some from...

I was on a walk near my house when I saw some nice light on Whitehorse Mt. to the north. I hurried home, grabbed my tripod and long lens and got this shot. In this B&W version it's all the other layers that make the final result.

It didn't look that great when I first took off, but I hadn't gotten any pictures on a drive that day due to rain so I was motivated to shoot the drone up and look around at sunset. The first flight didn't yield much, so I waited a bit and went up again when I hoped the sun was in the right...

All taken from Green Mt.

We've all seen the shots of someone standing with their head lamp pointing toward the stars. I wanted to go bigger. So here is the Cape Disappointment lighthouse pointing into the Milky Way . I'll throw in Mars and a shooting star as a free bonus. Any thoughts are welcome.

I took a walk along the docks in Ilwaco, Washington on Sunday morning. This is the town that my grandmother grew up in, after her family settled there about 150 years ago. I liked this view of the water, boats and the red buildings from the local fish company. Any thoughts are welcome.

This is near by the Ohanapecosh River in the Mount Rainer drainage. Nice place to hang out if it isn't smoky. _V1R0272 by Zeph posted Sep 3, 2018 at 8:26 PM C&C Welcome
