An excellent 3/4 moon was the fill for this shot. 350sec f8.0 18mm Canon 40D
We went out to Smith Rocks again this week! My wife took the sharp end of the rope for another round and squashed the spider on the first pitch of Spiderman Buttress a 5.7 slab for her third lead climb ever. Naturally while out there to climb I also seized the opportunity to get some more photos.
Our neighbor in camp
The Monument at Smith
Cristian Brothers of Smith Rock State Park
This was a 150sec exposure at f2.8 with a 18mm
Smith Rock landscape is undeniably amazing
Matt trekking through avalanche debris
Took this shot of Matt on our way up Yellow Aster Butte last Thursday. We did not make it up due difficulties in the steep forest. I found a few tree wells to be rather inviting unintentionally.
Taking flight at Larrabee State Park
I got this shot on Friday at Larrabee State park along Chuckanut Dr south of Bellingham, Wa. Went out there for some bouldering and photography after a hard day in the mountains on Thursday.
Mount Saint Helens from the Worm Flow approach trail.
I had a 3 hour window of opportunity yesterday morning so I decided to scope out the standard winter approach on the South side of Helens or Loowit (Keeper of the Fire). I took the above photo with my little HD video/photo camera. The lighting is not as I would have liked it had I used my DSLR.
