Cascade Reflections

Mount Baker, Washington
September 30, 2009–the first snowfall of the season on the peaks of Mount Baker. Just the previous day, the sun was shining and there was not a snowflake on the mountain. I parked the camper for the night and set the alarm for sunrise. When I arrived, I was completely floored! I thought I was in a different place for a minute. My heart raced as I grabbed my gear and hiked under twilight up to the shores of this enchanted lake. Moments before taking this shot, the sun peaked through the clouds and gently lit the edge of the ridge. This was the magic touch that made this shot! It was just incredible how much Mother Nature can change overnight, creating this silent scene broken only by the sound of my shutter.
