A Morning View at Reflection Lakes

[AlanLichty]

Most folks line up for their captures of Mt. Rainier at Reflection Lakes but I like to check out the other possibilities when I visit there as well. I liked the contrasts between the deep greens of the evergreens and the bright red berries in the foreground for this particular view looking almost directly east from where I parked during a morning visit. This is a two shot stitch at 35mm.

C&C always welcome.

Thanks Jameel - I had just stepped into the sidewalk and spotted this view and decided it was worth shooting.

Thanks Jim - there was too much wind for good reflections but this view struck me as worthy of a shot as well.

You made the right decision. Alan! Are those mountain ash berries?

Thanks Doug - I believe you are correct on the ID - mountain ash berries.
