Rainy Day


Lake McDonald, Glacier National Park
"Good luck and good work for the happy mountain raindrops, each one of them a high waterfall in itself, descending from cliffs and hollows of the clouds to the cliffs and hollows of the rocks, out of the sky-thunder into the thunder of the falling rivers. Some, falling on meadows and bogs, creep silently out of sight to the grass roots, hiding softly as in a nest, slipping, oozing hither, thither, seeking and finding their appointed work. Some, descending through the spires of the woods, sift spray through the shining needles, whispering peace and good cheer to each one of them." John Muir (1838-1914)

Looks like a nice area. Do you get up there much?

Yes, I go to the Park every chance I get. There are times when it takes ones breath away with it's beauty. A must see if you ever visit.

Good picture Dad. Was this with the Sony?

Scott, if you do get a chance to visit the US, make sure to hit Yellowstone and Glacier. They are well worth the trip. As I'm sure other places are, but Glacier holds a special place in my heart!

This was one of my first with the 10D. Shot at 98MM, 1/250th @ F4. It was probably with the 70-200MM. It was June 26th and around 7:30 AM. That's why it's so blue.
