3:00 am and I can barely see my subject through the viewfinder.

Mt. Jefferson from Asterisk Pass

Looks more like a parapet to me.

Turkey Vulture

Full moon from Santiam Pass

Asterisk Clouds

Ahh, camping!

The cover of the Fall 2007 newsletter was put together primarily in Photoshop with typography done in Illustrator. It’s a montage of two different images, the mountains and the campfire. I was trying for a “right at sunset” effect with the light on only the caps of the mountains and darkness everywhere else. I don’t know if it was read that way, but it did make for a fun design, especially with the type right in the middle of the image.
