This is kind of cheat-blogging, but it is my prerogative. I am essentially reposting A Beautiful Sight from back in January of 2005 (actually the original post is here at my old ModBlog blog). I came across these pictures that I took of Mount Rainier and wanted to share them again. I have also posted a few more of them as a Flickr set: Mount Rainier, so feel free to check those out as well. Images are clickable for larger, of course.



This is a series of three images that I tried different focus planes. What do you think?

Dude, it didn’t matter which “focus plane” I viewed. Awesome pictures, seriously.

I love Washington State, and your pictures are nice, reposting or not! I’m a native Californian, but there’s always the retirement years!

Washington is a gorgeous place to be, I love it here.
Glad you like the pics.

Thanks.
I really love these pictures too. I can’t wait to see this someday myself. More inspiration to move west, there’s nothing that beautiful in Michigan.

I can’t argue with you there! There are loads of beautiful sights here!

I like the 2nd “plane” the best; it’s the most unexpected!!

I think the Padres don’t stand a chance this year.
I think that the second one looks best, although only in the larger version, smaller the third one looks best.
I also think I’ll have chicken for dinner.

It’s alway been one of my dreams to go to Mount Rainer. The pictures, as beautiful as they are, have brought me closer to that gorgious mountain. Thanks Matt.

Matt Jones Said:
Thanks Omni! I tend to agree with you and Kirstin’s assessment.
Kirstin, were you rooting for the Padres? Expecting them to take it all? And chicken is good. I like it.
Thanks Becky, you definitely need to get over there sometime. It isn’t as far as it seems! There are lots of places to visit.

They’ll never win it all but have to root for the Padres in my own limited attention span way cause I’m from there. And I’ll spare you more of my thoughts right now. No, don’t thank me.
