Truly a beautiful photo from a beautiful part of the world. I live here, so I know that from personal experience. Well done, and thanks for giving us a glimpse of paradise!
When you have time and when the weather cooperates, take yourself down to Rainier during the winter. It's a stunningly beautiful as your photo!
Fabulous place and extremely well photographed! I'm so glad I'm able to appreciate it from the warmth of my home. Thanks for that.

The fact that these people appreciated the image speaks volumes. I'm going to enjoy this feat as I can't even imagine when I'll be back on the front page. Again, thank you all for the kind and supportive comments.
I normally will not leave a comment on an image that the photographer does not check the "This comment was helpful" box since I'm not sure if he/she ever even looks at them... so why waste my time when there are other entries whose photographers live for comments to learn from?
Anyway, your comment above leads me to believe that you do read them... just are negligent about letting folks know.
Oh my! What a hero photo. Congratulations on 2nd place -- but this is the type of photo that will wow you and everyone else long after the challenge is over!

This image was an HDR/Tonemap from a single exposure. -2, 0, +2 from Lightroom. Processed in Photomatix v3.x. Tweaked in Photoshop CS3.
BTW, the day was nothing short of epic. Hoards of knee deep, untouched, light and fluffy pow and pretty much empty as it was a weekday morning. Of course, when you entered that cloud deck below, visibility was ugly...
