Picture of the Month
February 2008
Winter Sunset on Mount Hood, Oregon
I was on a family ski trip to Mt. Hood, but that didn't prevent me from sneaking out one afternoon to try and take a few pictures during a stretch of extraordinarily clear winter weather. I had taken dozens of pictures from this vantage point before some fog began to roll in over the pass : then, I had just a few seconds before the scene was obliterated by clouds. But in those few moments I got this - the best shot of the day.
