Gorgeous!!!!

Please keep me posted; would love to see it!

Absolutely

Thanks; in this case I set WB to Daylight.

Interesting; I used the Basic Day setting in LR to adjust. I am colorblind so do not touch anything else in fear of really making it FUBAR.

The Eagle Tree was the purpose of my trip!

I saw you!

Bragging from Coach?

That I did! Flying in from Orange County, it was around 3pm

The amazing thing this time the clouds broke just over the city…then covered up everything else on the approach

Awesome info; we may take you up on that!!

Franklin was one of the first places we explored when we moved to Maple Valley 7 years ago. The remains of an old coal car trestle…my son and dog in the corner for perspective

True, this was done with a 150-600, which compressed the scene, but that mountain scene really is that dramatic; here’s the same scene but at 24mm:

With a 24-70

No, I’ve never heard of it either, and it’s only 10 minutes from my house. FYI: there is no “downtown” but it IS on the map, north of Enumclaw.

You know, upon closer look these are ground down perpendicular to some expansion joints. Not all, and some locations have more than others. Some lanes don’t have them at all. Any ideas?

Thanks Google Street View!

Understand expansion joints, but I assume OP was referring to those dashed groves in some lanes themselves, not between the lanes; they appear to be ground down a 1/4 - 1/2 inch from surface and are right where your tires go…I end up straddling the lane line when there is no other traffic just to stop the sound.

It was taken behind a relatively new subdivision

Every. Single. Time.

Darkness, rain, and snow…it’s all coming back next week. I blame you.

Very cool!
