Very nice composition, Walt. Perfect exposure of the whole scene with all the detail kept in the mountain. Nicely done! Larry

Thanks for your kind remarks. Unfortunately, this view was still the best part of a hour or so away.
When one reaches the park entrance, there is still a long journey up narrow winding roads, open only, in some parts, from May to late September. during the rest of the year, the roads are closed or chains are required.
However, I have driven all over the Mt Rainier Natl. Park road system, from one end to the other, and using various entrances.
The beauty of Mt Rainier, is that it can be see in a 360 degree circle, no matter where one stands, even from Seattle,which is over 200-300
miles away.
So Washingington state is blessed by several mountains, with Mt Rainier being one of the most visible, and visited,or photographed.
A place of simple or difficult hikes, peaceful lakes and meadows, etc.
So again in answer to your question, I was still quite a ways off, yet was able to see the mountain in glorious visibility, awaitingmy viewing pleasure.
I have many views of different parts of Mt Rainier Natl Park, and can hardly wait tovisit once again.

Very nice leading lines... I can see at least 5. Seeing this and the other photo makes me wonder how close you made it to the mountain.
Cheers,
Chris

Good capture Walt.
It looks like a postcard.
I like the lighting and the shadows of the mountain in the background.
Good work,
Khaled.

Thanks for your comments. Yep, i am getting used to using my D70,but have lots to learn to use it correctly.
Now that I am going to school, I don't have much time to go out and shoot.
I also need to learn how to use the D70 so that when I shoot scenics, the pictures can be enlargened to 16x20, if I so desire.

Thanks for your comments. This ole lady is a bit pale today, with no clouds visible. In the future, I hope to get a few better shots, with clouds or some late sun on the top, to bring out the view.

Thanks for your remarks. I hope to go back and shoot this scene when the late sun is on the mountain; that will be a much better view.

Thanks for your comments. Although I have been by this road many times, this is the first time I have actually gone down it and saw what it had to offer.

I like this very much; how the road leads your eye to the mountain. Very pretty.
