Scale - a photo on Flickriver

Scale

            this is the second shot that I've run back through Lr since learning my file sizes were too small. (I think) now y'all can see what I see.  If you'd like you can zoom in and see Paradise Lodge (Elev. 5400 ft)  and the Skyline Trail that eventually takes you to camp Muir and then the summit.  From right center sweeping down is the Nisqually Glacier, mother to the Nisqually River and all of it's beauty.  To the right is the much debated Tahoma Peak, I say it's a peak as it is no longer a part of the blown away section of Rainier.  It stands at 11,138 ft with over 800ft of prominence.  And of course her Majesty herself, Mount Rainier Elevation 14,411 with 13,211 feet of prominence.  My fellow hikers and I are on the Plummer Peak trail just under Pinnacle Peak right there.

I realized once I'd finished in Lr that I'd zoned out for about ten minutes while staring at this.  I've spent every spare moment this past year climbing all over this wonder and I know that I'll never see it all, but it's been a life changing experience.  Thank you to the folks who invented the camera and to those that make it at least semi user friendly for hacks like me.  I've really enjoyed being dragged around by my Sony.  :-)
