Good stuff here. This is my kind of shot.

Luke, you have a similar taste to me then. This is probably the photo I am most happy with this year.

I like it for the natural borders, natural composition. But the clouds themselves, they lend uncertainty to the shot. So many shots don't let you guess the weather, but in this one I have no idea what's going on. For me, that's what keeps me interested in a shot.

Good stuff.

This is Kaikoma. You can tell by the white rock.

I just got back from Senjo. It was mostly pretty cloudy, but what a sweet walk. Senjo is beautiful and the walk just about as well-rounded as you could ask for, forest approach, steep climb, approaching the summit, scrambling among crags, time in a cirque, and descending through alpine gardens and slopes splashing with waterfalls... just great. I heartily recommend it.

Interesting point about the weather, Luke. I liked it for the natural borders, myself, but I hadn't thought about that aspect at all.

Glad the hike went well, Butuki. I'm heading that way fairly soon. Will be looking forward to your next report.
