Description
Mt. St. Helens from approximately 4000 feet (1200 m) up Mt. Defiance. I'm guessing at the height, I don't remember exactly where this break in the trees was.
My maps say these two mountains are about 45 miles (72 km) apart, approximately the same as Mt. Adams and Defiance. But in the summer the sky gets so hazy it looks like it's farther.
Again, no manipulation of the colors; it's really that blue.
Thanks for stopping by and any comments.

love the multiple planes and the blue palette which looks next to incredible
Another fascination I have is with Mt. St. Helens. This is a fabulous shot. I love the layers of mountain with the snow capped Mt. St. Helens standing tall in the back. Excellent!
I never tire of looking at pictures of Mt. St. Helens and this is a great shot. I, too, love the layers of mountains in this.
Remarkable beauty and love those natural blues!! Beautiful shot!
Beautiful view...
Beautiful landscape.
This is a magnificent view and excellently captured. It's ironic that something so destructive has such beauty.
Such an amazing capture. All the potential danger exist in this yet its beautiful. Aloha
Stunning tone on your shot, makes you feel like you're in a ice age. I would however crop the trees out. They are distracting and there aren't enough to be a natural frame. You could also clone them out...
fabulous views...fabulous shot! i believe you about the blue, as our Blue mountains are exactly the same
A most beautiful shot of this mountain. I see the power lines in the bottom of this shot.
Even after all these years St. Helens still looks funny to me without her top. I know this is the view everyone is familiar with, but I remember when we had four matching mountains, and my mind still fills in the missing 1300 feet. Gorgeous capture!
Another beautiful capture and I love the way the light accenuates the snow capped peak in the background. Wonderful colours. Excellent. xx
Excellent and very interesting shot. What a fantastic view. Thanks for sharing!
Love it ! The inmensity of the view is awesome. Very very well done !
superb shot for beautiful landscape !!
Now that’s a capture of true realism Dennis! I have never seen the mountain from this angle. You captured it well!
Que plenitud.... que hermoso... que grandeza!!!! ;O)
It's like an island rising out of a rolling sea! Brilliant image :)
So beautiful.
Beautiful image.
What a terrific shot! The depth of the hilltops between the camera and the subject is wonderful!
Such a beautiful capture. The Layers give a real sense of distance.
This is very cool work! Makes me feel very peaceful, love the color too
