good catch. Got me curious. Do you know where the Rainier on the license plate is suppose to be seen from by chance?

No, I don't, sorry.

But it looks like you are pretty close.

Wikipedia shows a view "from the west" that lines up w/ the plates pretty well.
From Mt Si would be the north face. I agree it looks similar though.

It's kind of amazing how instantly recognizable it is from any direction, and the image on the plates is stylized to the point where it would be hard to nail down.

A series of shots made throughout the day in June, 2011, while driving from Limon, Colorado to Snowville, Utah, about 660 miles.

On US 287, probably in Colorado.

Later in the day as I approached Wamsutter, Wyoming the weather got nasty.

At one point the wipers wouldn't keep up.

And a few minutes later I broke out of the storm, and passed a set of Old Dominion triples.

We've had some interesting clouds this week,
Looking almost due East from the Winslow Ferry Dock:

I like the way this sums up the area for me, Big city, but just a short boat ride away, a cozy, quiet little get away.

And this is almost the same angle as my shot of Rainier above,

The Mountain is under those two cloud peaks in the center-left. I thought that tulip shaped cloud to the right had to be preserved.

It has always seemed to me that one of the major changes in the rural landscape happened in the mid-1970s, when the windmills began to much more quickly disappear, at the same time that the gigantic television satellite dishes seemed to replace them.
