I really don't condone this type of activity, I was air hungry.

I was looking at some slides and thought this was a nice one to scan

and share. Taken with a tripod and camera on 20sec timer.

Intersting, but the colors are a little too much.

Anthony, I do think that the yellow is too much myself. As indicated, this was a scanned slide and unmanipulated.

Thanks for commenting.

OK, so what do I know ~ it was the red channel that is way too strong. This must have been Kodak. Anyway, I did want to post this as unmanipulated and even doing that, folks aren't happy because it's NOT manipulated.

A rare moment indeed. Thank you for sharing this. best to you, Al

Thanks Al, appreciate your commenting.

This was a quieter time, 20yrs ago on Mt Rainier (more snow too).

I guess being in Paradise just went to your head. I'm glad you did not encounter one of the black bears.

Actually, I like the strong colors of the original. The whole image is so preposterous, so original and the composition so pleasingly bizarre (at least for me) the colors seem to compliment it perfectly. These could be the foothills of Oz.

I think it's a charming image! (in either color)

Shawn, we've only run into bears on the Sunrise side of the mountain. I always have my bear spray in that area.

Jack, sometimes this area and path is like a fantasy path. We always enjoy seeing women in their best dress and pumps going above the paved path. Guess they are high on the "mollies".

Kim, thanks! I like my first post, I did have a rich tan, we had been living in Florida and heading to Oregon for our summer job.

Regards, Dave

I like the sign posted to the bench: Makes no difference where you turn. In this country you get to Paradise.....,Bert

Thanks Bert, glad I was able to keep just enough of the sign to add an extra dimension. I use to not think anything of carrying my Bogen 3221 and squeeze grip head, now - ugh.

PLAGUE....The PLAGUE... DAVE!

 

Don't feed the critters Dave!....Oh...nice legs there Big Fella!
