Thanks for all the additional comments. It's rewarding to hear that your photos resonate with other people (and especially photographers). I'm always interested in learning which photos people a drawn to because it always surprises me!

Thanks, everyone. Appreciate the comments! I can't stress enough how beneficial the larger ND Grad filters were. The standard P size filters are fine for the DA 18-55 and even the 55-300 but they absolutely don't cut it with the 12-24.

Having FINALLY received my order of Lee ND Grad filters, I was eager to put them to use. This past week brought the first snows of fall to the Cascades. Forecasts called for continued clouds and chance of snow but, as Saturday morning developed, Mount Baker remained visible. I decided to roll the dice and take my gear up to Heather Meadows at the end of the Mount Baker Highway.
Rather than join the other photographers at Picture Lake, I set out for the saddle that seperates the Bagley Lake basin from the Chain Lakes basin. At the start of the "magic hour," I found myself on the saddle with Mount Baker to my right and Mount Shuksan to my left.
This was one of the best sunsets I've been able to photograph in some time (easily surpassing last week's!). About the time I had decided to head back, the full moon briefly broke through the thickening clouds. A wonderful outing..
