Lens: Canon EF 24-105mm f/4.0L IS
Location: Timberline Lodge, Mt Hood, Oregon
Date: Dec 23, 2006
Aperture: f/13
ISO: 400
Shutter: 621

Date Uploaded: Dec 23, 2006

 Taken at about 9:00 PM on Mt Hood near the Timberline Lodge. The wind was more than just a breeze and is the hardest thing to deal with on these long exposures. I hunkered in a small lee of a tree and dug the tripod in until the camera was no more than 8-12 inches off the ground. Another hard thing was focus, but there was enough light thrown from the moon and the lights of the nearby lodge to focus on the front trees. This is a 10-minute exposure.

The greens look a bit odd on my monitor. Other than that it's great
