Mt Rainier Night View

Not quite a clear night ....high clouds bounced the city lights of Seattle and Tacoma ...but, this is probably as good as it will get prior to Chinook Pass closure for the winter. Comments welcome.

ISO 1250, F2.0, 15 sec shutter, Zeiss 35mm, 3 photos merged. Shot around 12:15 am.

Love the dark quiet beauty here. The strands of warm clouds set off the cool tones very nicely.

Love the dark reflection and the blue stars. The snow really adds to the scene. Must be tough hiking the fresh snow.

Dreamy conditions here Ken. Very peaceful and I can feel the cold just looking at this.

I would not change a thing.
Beautiful framing and color.
The stars are about perfect for me.
