Paradise on Mt. Rainer, Washington State, mid-May 2009


The roads were open as far as "Paradise".

I took these from inside of the Visitor Center...

... which had a second floor lined with windows.


"...noblest..." is a strong recommendation from this guy!

A knee-high kid hit the button for the lights at just the right time!

Can you find my camper here? Good winter camoflage!

I liked the stone walls. Built by CCC?

I didn't have snow boots, so walked down the not-yet-opened road.

It was getting late, making for some interesting snow/sky/shadow interactions.

Angles.

Smoke signals?

The crispness came through here.

I like the hollows created by the trees. How? Extra heat? Swaying in the wind?

Such contrast: snow and wet stone.
