Tim: You sorry dog, having the North Cascades in your backyard. I love Texas in the spring but the North Cascades are wonderful all year around. Great find and a superb capture. 2 thumbs up! >=))>

Tim, I really like environmental shots, and this is no exception. Very well captured.

Thanks Bill and Phillip.
Bill, you'll get a kick outta this ....a note from your profession. I have been having a hard time getting things focussed lately. Getting very frustrated as you can imagine. Then, I remembered my old right angle viewfinder with 2X dioptics. I began to focus with that device and then absent mindedly discovered the diopter on the camera had been knocked out of whack! I don't know if my brain or my eyes will go first. Sure felt like a dummy though!

Hey Tim, better to feel like a dummy than actually be one. Good call on the angle finder. I don't use mine a lot but it is a very valuable piece of gear.

Gorgeous scen, Tim. The moss, needles, and dew drops (or leftover raindrops) give me the feeling of a soft, damp, and beautifully-green trail.
