Biography: Musician and Photographer. More musician than photographer, but the camera and seeing the beautiful world keeps the music and sound design work I do flowing……

Image Description – To say that I felt like I was on top of the world from this awesome mountain top is quite the understatement. A non-stop uphill hike for 3 miles is required – but the huge blister on my Right foot and hiking down to my car thru the pitch black forest with a headlamp for my only light source was totally worth it.

I used a 3-stop hard Sing Ray GND and a Circular Polrarizer. This is a single exposure with minimal post processing. That’s how it supposed to be – use the right tools in the field and then no work is required in the digital darkroom…..

Location - Mount Hood National Forest, Oregon

Photographic Gear – Canon 20 D, Sigma 10-20mm lens, 3-stop hard GND, Circular Polarizer, Tripod, Cable release
