Mount St. Helens, looking a little apocalyptic in a haze created by the Lake Chelan fire currently burning in eastern Washington. Last year we visited here as the wildflowers were starting to bloom. This year we overshot, with the main bloom of prairie lupine already past. Too early, then too late. Next year I hope to get it just right!

Ahh....I love hiking around MSH. I was up there three weeks ago and the lupine was going strong but everything else was pretty dried up. Usually the flowers are just hitting their peak about now, but this year everything's been blooming crazy early.
You've certainly achieved an arresting image that captures the destructive force of the mountain. I'm sure the flowers will wait for you next year!
hate to hear about the fires and drought up that way!
Gorgeous photo.
There is such a drama at Mount Saint Helens, you captured some of that!
What a different view of Mt. St. Helens, the fog does give it an "other worldly" feel.
Keep trying, Melissa! You still achieved a fantastic image though it was not how you had envisioned. I just noticed your prints for sale on your sidebar. The tulip farm shot is amazing!! Hope you're doing well at FAM.
