Continuing wednesdays roadtrip to Mt. Baker, one of the best photo ops is Mt. shuksun and Picture lake. Mt. shuksun all 9,127 ft is one of the photographed Mts. in the Cascade Range of Washington. Here she is reflected in Picture Lake with a beautiful blue sky background. But Look! what is zooming up from behind. Oops!! Modern day jet. I thought it looked kinda neat. Maybe I should call this 'streaking vapor trails'. MB
this beautiful area is about 2 1/2 hours from my house. I love it.

My Skywatch
terrific shots!
Such a beautiful scene. I don't think Hollywood could make it any better or choose a better location than this one. It is impressive.
By the way, the $20.00 Patty gave me for the week was for gasoline all week to and from work and for lunches at work, and for one carton of cigarettes. I wish now, with my collapsed lung and other breathing problems she had given me less. Maybe I wouldn't have smoked as much.
Beautiful and lovely shot !! Fantastic post !! THanks for sharing the beauty !!Unseen Rajasthan
Classic shots...they could become the cover of "Outdoor Photographer" magazine - so you ought to send them in!
What great natural beauty!
Have a wonderful weekend, MB!
Great shots! An amazing set indeed.
Whoa! These are superb shots MB. The clarity is divine as are the scenes themselves.
Those are stunning shots! The reflections are gorgeous.
Now that is what the word "BEAUTIFUL" was created to be used. It sad to see the falls so low in the previous post and the shellfish post makes this kitty HUNGRY. PEACE
The Cascades really are very photogenic. You've captured this reflection most superbly, even the contrail shows. Excellent.
You should link this to the Weekend Reflections meme over at Newtown Area Photo: newtowndailyphoto.blogspot.com/2009/10/special-weekend-reflections.html
It would be a great addition!
Oh my, you need to start selling your photos! I would love to send postcards like the first one when I'm in the Pacific Northwest!
That first shot looks like a painting and the ones with the jet are amazing - all great captures.
Thanks so much for the camera input. I'll check those out.
beauty... beauty... beautiful!
Amazing photos. My favourite is the close up on the aircraft contrail.
You really did good job on these. What beautiful scenery. Go ahead, pat yourself on the back. :-)
Ohhhh--beautiful!
Hi Mary Beth. There's no better picture than the ones you took showing the water and that beautiful mountain... WOW--the reflection is amazing. PERFECT setting... Thanks!
