Guardians of the Valley

Hi All,

First time posting here. Looks like a great community! Here's one from a recent fall day at Mt. Rainier National Park.

Fall day at Mount Rainier. I wanted to give the impression of the trees (and secondarily the mountains and clouds) guarding the valley, and chose to use the 70-200 with shallow DoF to get some compression and set the trees apart a bit. Went B&W for more of an edgy look.

All the best,
Per

Nice image Per. I would have liked to have seen it in colour also.Monochrome certainly has a timeless look. This could have been taken a century ago.

Thanks for the feedback and taking the time to comment, Geoff!

The attitude of these birds seemed me as human , so I took it.
