Nice shot, Joe. Although personally I'd prefer it in black and white rather than sepia.

Did a 13+/- mile hike in the Olympics yesterday, we were thwarted by about 8 feet of snow and no clear boot path, so we couldn't get to the lakes we wanted to get to, but we still had a good time.

Scrolling through the Minneapolis Star Tribune twitter page today. So much good photography, I thought. Even on the hum-drum subjects. Worth a look. Sorry, no link.

Thanks.
Lots of stuff hatching in the last few days. This brood was on a small island hiding the best they could, the hen was pretty frantic, there was an eagle sitting right above them. I got my camera ready. Then she took the brood towards the mainland, about a hundred yards away. I thought for sure I was going to capture an eagle picking one of these guys off. He watched them the whole way and made no attempt. Not sure why, they had to be easy pickings. Maybe my presence was enough of a distraction.

Converted in post. I used Luminar for the B/W conversion, it's new software for me. I also did some luminosity masking with Lumenzia to get some detail in the sky.

This was one of my favorite evening hikes close to town. Begin the hike late in the afternoon and reach the lookout in time to watch the sun set over the Olympics. It only do you see the sunset, but the pink alpenglow on rainier snowcap behind you. Hike down by headlamp. Very few people around that late In the day.

Rainier is really a great area. Last year I did Rampart Ridge, Wonderland Trail up to Carter Falls, Lake George, Indian Henry's Hunting Ground via Kautz Creek Trail, and snowshoe trips on a couple of those trails and over to Reflection Lakes. Wouldn't mind doing Indian Henry's and Lake George again but I'm hoping to try other spots this year.
And speaking of Rainier, here's a picture from my snowshoe over to Reflection Lake earlier this year:

That's a great pic. Wish we had Whitethroat Sparrows out here in Washington. Whitethroat Sparrows and Hermit Thrushes are the lead singers in the wilderness soundtrack, at least for me. Oh and loons too.

This is a trail out in the Olympics in Washington. I'm thinking about revisiting it pretty soon.

Maybe I'm answering my own question, but should I have shot the duck picks and dog pick below with a CPL filter, to not get reflections off the water? (I see the focus issue too, but he's pulling on my arm when I'm taking the pictures so it's one handed...)

no expert but like the reflections. i'm also a sucker for baby anything photos and at first the ducks were my favorite... then i saw the baby geese... oh, really nice. looks like they are so light and fluffy just sitting on top of that algae
