Description
Yesterday's Mt Hood Pano was taken looking east across the city of Portland. If I looked north instead, I got this shot of Mt Rainier on the left with its twin peaks, and Mt St Helens on the right with that darned branch in the way. Sorry, but there was no place to go where it wasn't in the way.
Anyway, Rainier is about 100 miles (160 km) from Portland, and St Helens is about 50 miles (80 km) away.
This is also composed of three shots, stitched together in PhotoShop CS3.
Thanks for stopping by and any comments.

Wow, that's very impressive! I'm always amazed at how the smallest change in position can alter our perception of the size of these mountains. Great work!
Wow that's beautiful! Just bring some clippers next time and wait until no-one is looking and chop that branch out of the way! Just kidding of course. Don't worry it doesn't take away from the beauty of this scene you captured!
Impressive view and wonderful light. Excellent shot, the details are fantastic!
You had a lucky day to see all of Mt. Ranier Dennis. I spent two weeks in Puyallup, WA and never saw the top, it was always in the clouds. This is a keeper! Great pano.
fantastic shot... fantastic scape ! ( I love that branch !)
Stupendous pano!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! taken from Pittock Mansion area????
that's awe inspiring!
Fantastic pano. Love those Cascade peaks. Sometimes I miss seeing them. Thanks for sharing these mountain shots.
This is a beautiful pano!!! woooww what a snow up in the mountains!! Have a nice day!! Henk
such a lovely place ... been awhile since I've been there but will never forget the beauty of both Washington and Oregon..
You really had amazing weather for this hike! Thank you for sharing these incredible shots with us :)
Amazing capture..absolutely beautiful!!
Wow! Fabulous shot Dennis! I sure wish I had traveled down this road and had been able to see both at once! Stunning as so beautiful with the snow cover!
I don't know what I can add that hasn't already been said. This is one AMAZING pano! WOW!
Wow Dennis, what a beautiful shot. It must have been really clear, because normally you only see these mountains that clear when you fly above the clouds and they are usually 10,000-ft high. Come to think of it, you wouldn't even see Mt. St. Helens. Anyway, a super shot, Sig...
That's awesome...just breathtaking to see them together like that. Stellar capture.
impressive sight ... breath-taking
beautiful view...
Fantastic capture.
I'm so used to seeing Rainier from up here! Seeing it from other directions is always a revelation. This is a phenomenal image. Looking at this, it's hard to believe they're 50 miles apart. And look at all that snow! Wow. Gorgeous.
Beautiful mountains capped with snow. Such a beautiful place. Aloha
Excellent Shot!!!!! Excellent work!!!! Roby ;O)
Well I actually like the addition of the branch Dennis, I think it gives an extra feeling of depth and perspective to this shot! Another fantastic vista perfectly stitched together...seemlessly! Hugs Chrissy xx
Wonderful work, i don't mind the branch, might have even a bit more to give a greater sense of depth. Excellent work, anyway!!
Oh wow you used invisible stitches! We used to call that stitch witchery L ..... tis good to have that branch there, least we know you had something to hang onto while you took this series of shots G
impressive!
WOWeeeeeee this is beautiful!!!!!!!!!
Lovely shot. Been me, I think I've have cropped the branch or cloned the sky over just to see how it looked.
