Shot from the window of our Southwest 737 on our way to Portland. I’m experimenting with the old direct positive preset in Lightroom 3 to try to figure out something I like in LIghtroom 4.
Flying over Mt. Shasta on route to Portland, May, 2013
Panther Meadows
Panther Meadows #3 (click to view large)
We hiked through Panther Meadows on our way to the little summit of Gray Butte at Mt. Shasta. In person, it was interestingly beautiful on account of these strange little pines. In digital, it is rather more strangely beautiful in terms of the color. This was the first time I actually found myself in the mountains with a polarizing filter on the camera. It seems to have done things to the color that I was not expecting and can’t seem to control well. This was especially so in the meadow here, for some reason. Nonetheless, I found these shots interesting.

A Walk in the Neighborhood
Afternoon Stroll
Soon after arriving at the vacation house, we were settled in and ready to go explore and figure out where we were. We headed out on foot, going south along the gravel road until it came to a gate and paved road. Just beyond a stand of pines to the east, a house stood, with debris and equipment, including a backhoe, strewn around. We passed through the gate and took a right, walking up a gentle slope away from the house. A couple hundred feet in, we came to gravesite. We huddled to confer. We decided to turn around; we were getting hungry, anyway. The girls led the way back. Mt Shasta stood guard in the distance.
