Edge of the Earth

Can you photoshop me in right here please? HeeHee! :-)

Helloooooo ! Hellooooooo !!!
Anybody ???!!!

I'd like to stand here :-D

This mountain is pretty!

OMG! Idon't have enough courage to do that

I was somewhere over here in Portland Oregon at the time ;-D

I live right there

smart wool.

If he falls, this tree just might save him.

Mt. Hood

I'm here lol =)

Nice Blue SKY!

..and i'm "the rock"..he3

CoOoL RoCks

looks so unreal!! i love it!!

View Large On Black

Another shameless self portrait.

A fun shot I took yesterday while backpacking near Mt. Hood. I was using the 10 second timer, so it was quite a scramble to get up there in time, the mountain kept clouding up before the shutter would go off so it took about 10 trys, but it was loads of fun :)

Funny story about this image, my buddy and I were totally bummed when we saw the fog rolling through, we thought it was going to ruin sunset which it did. The point is, in my boredom I captured this gem which is now one of my all time most popular images. Just goes to show, just being out there and keeping your mind open can enable you to surprise yourself.

This was made using the 10 second timer, it was a wild scramble to get up there and set up in time :)

Brilliant. You're nuts but this shot is awesome. You should consider a remote so you don't overscramble!

That is exactly how photography should be, fun and shameless. And a great image to boot (no pun intended). I love how the mountain seems to be floating. Looks like an amazing hike, which trail was this?
