Man Made Power and a Low Key Mountain Setting (Ross Lake National Recreation Area) by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: A combination of titles for this image. One is from this one I came across a few years ago on Flickr (www.flickr.com/photos/the-o/6177849668/in/gallery-1472333...). The other is from one of the Nik CEP 4.0 filters I used for this image. It's actually a recipe of a number of filters, but the Low Key filter is one that really brought out the look I felt best captured this mountain setting. With the bright sunlight coming out this late morning, I decided to once again try out a techniques of using an HDR capture with my Nikon D800E with multiple in-camera exposures. I then brought the image into Capture NX2 for a majority of the post-processing work before exporting a TIFF image to Nik CEP 4.0

Day 27-28

Today is Husband’s birthday, so we of course spent time doing laundry and putting on the tire we got fixed. Although it sucked away much of the morning, we were able to have a great rest of the day. First, we went to Leavenworth, a mock Bavarian Germany town, filled with decorated buildings, German food, and all the tourist activities you can think of.

We visited a few shops, like Krampus Kave, the local gaming store, and ate decent German food at Ludwig’s. Into the mountains we found Wenatchee State Park, which had a windy and gorgeous beach where we sat and read, watching the windsurfers and a wildfire on the other bank.

I’ve started Jaws by Peter Benchley and I must say, I wasn’t very excited about it, but from the first paragraph on this has kept me enraptured and I’ve seriously been enjoying it.

We headed back into Leavenworth for a birthday desert; a delicious German Chocolate Cake, German Apple Cake, and an apple cider to celebrate the German heritage Husband didn’t know he had until recently. The next day we left our hotel and headed back into the Snuggly Sanctum of Snuggle (Copyright Ashton, 2022) and onto North Cascades National Park.

We camped at Marble Creek and enjoyed the views of the mountains and Diablo Lake on our way in. I had planned this trip in order to see this specific park, since I had heard of its glory and that it’s the most under-visited National Park in the lower 48. So far, every trailhead has been busy and full just as any other major park I’ve been too, so I’m expecting that like us, others have heard this and are coming out in droves to see and experience such a beautiful place.

Taking a hike tomorrow,

Haylan

365 Things To Do In Scenic Washington State

#302 - See the brilliant blue of Diablo Lake. Located along the North Cascades Scenic Highway, the intense turquoise hue of the lake's water is attributed to the surrounding glaciers that grind rocks into a fine powder that is carried into the lake through creeks. That fine powder stays suspended in the lake, giving the water its brilliant color. (Photo via Wandering Weekender)

Crowley Lake, created in 1941, named after a "beloved Catholic priest Father Crowley"

Crowley Lake - Wikipedia

Beloved Father Crowley:

And I think it must be named after this Father Crowley because there is also a "Crowley hot springs" 40 minutes away that's "clothing optional"--not very priest-like...
