A couple weeks ago we had a little fresh snow at Mt Hood and Trillium Lake was perfectly flat at daylight which provided a wonderful reflection.

Thank you!

Haven't been on here in awhile. Took this photo in October. Been trying to get this photo for years, but the leaves are usually too green or have fallen off. When I arrived I thought it was too cloudy for any color in the sky, but figured the vine maples would be pretty. As I'm setting up my tripod and notice some pink in the clouds, so I hurried and adjusted the settings. Mount Hood, Oregon

Great Grey Owl that allowed me to photograph him in the Ochoco National Forest in Oregon.

Small waterfall on a tributary stream within the Mt Hood National Forest, Oregon

Was hiking on Mt Hood last Saturday evening. Zigzag Canyon had fog in it and the low sun cast my shadow onto the fog and created a rainbow effect. I'd never witnessed this before, but have since found out that these unusual mindbenders are referred to as a "glory".
