This was one of the finest days that could have been picked for this TRIP. I figured I might as well show you the best of the best before I gave you some of my other observations of this powerful place. If you're ever in the area, it's so worth the looksee and the sheer force of nature overwhelms you as you view this stripped down version of our earth....28 years since the initial blasts and still it looks like a wasteland. The MOTORING up was encouraging as to Nature's reclaimation, but the actual site was like a view from another planet. :)PJ

What a rugged and beautiful landscape. I drove through that countryside several years ago. It's amazing how those volcanic peaks loom above all the other mountains. Nice photo.

The best part of this photo is its extremely good clarity. The view is magnificent, of course. Thanks for sharing and for the links.

A stunning and beautiful capture PJ. You get the sense of drama that is attached to this area very clearly from your image. Wonderful!!

You caught a beauty there. The shadow if the cloud on the ground tops it all off for me.

Why not visit my Gallery.
Wow..best of the best indeed. Definitely looks like a perfect day; I really like the lighting created by the few clouds. Great detail and depth. This will be a really interesting contrast if you're going to show whats left of the devastation from the eruption. Nicely done, Peej!!

One item on my "bucket list" is to visit every National Park in the United States. So far, 2 are in the book. Please check out my website for all my shots from Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks.
What a shot. What contrast between the calm weather in the shot compared to the turmoil during and after the eruption. Looks like a few little guys are trying to grow out at the base, don't it.

Beautifully done,

"God is my only hope and the source of my joy." Henri Nouwen
What a volcano!! Scarey. But a necessary photo for sure. Great vantage point...and I think the cloud and it's shadow just makes the whole photo come to life even more. You did a really fine job capturing the 'whole' mountain....V

Sometimes I do get to places just when God's ready to have somebody click the shutter. - Ansel Adams
This is quite a photo.Perfect exposure and clarity.The way that the clouds hanging around the crater almost gives the impression of smoke or steam.Great photo.

Live simply. Speak kindly. Care deeply. Love generously.
Wonderful wide angle shot of this majestic place. That cloud and it's shadow really make this almost surreal. What a fantastic capture.

Just to know that we are not the rulers of the earth is heartening. It still has control and is a mighty powerful force we must learn to live with. An excellent example of raw nature and an excellent post, PJ.

Okay. So you're in the Heart of a Storm. Everything is perfectly calm, right? But you know that at any minute that calm is going to go away, and everything is going to be in chaos, and the world around you will literally blow you away. I want to be there.
Nice photo indeed, great colours in this, and good focusing to boot.

No trees were killed in the sending of this message. However, a large number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced. Everyone has photographic memory; some just don't have the film.
COME ON YOU GREENS, UP THE ARGYLE.....
This one belongs in the group of the best mountain shots ever! Faved!

Why do the pictures come out square when the lens is round??
I spent my college freshman year at a small university in Oregon... This mountain was visible from my dormitory window, long before it blew its top of course. As I'm familiar with the original, I can say that your portrait does it absolute justice.

My, how time flies. Love the dial-a-sky. Looks like the timing was perfect. Those clouds look like they are really moving. A rugged piece of beauty,now, but a terrible demonstration of the ferocity of nature a few decades ago.

This is a very impressive shot! Lovely colors and clarity. Even though I've lived in Washington my whole life, I've not yet visited Mt. St. Helens. I'm closer to Mt. Rainier, so that's where we've been the most. Your photo really gets me in the mood for a road trip ;)
