 Photographer’s Notes
Oh my! I took my motorcycle off on a two-day trip around Mt. Rainier (Washington State … USA). Great fun! When I returned, I had a bit too much time on my hands as my wife was working the late shift.

This is a composite of two photos. One is of the Nisqually River, looking back towards Mt. Rainier, which proceeds from the Nisqually Glacier in the Mt. Rainier National Park. The second is of the visitor center at Paradise; a Sci-Fi building if ever there was one.

Those of you, who know me, know I do not put much stake in Global Warming … but rather I believe we should solve the mobile-carbon-fuel supply and demand problem. So consider this political commentary.

Good Composition. I think this photo may look a little over sharpened for me.

I would have liked to see something stronger here, maybe a melting glacier or and/or a more predominate space vessel.

I agree!! The UFO is a bit unpronounced and should be more imposing.
