Sunrise Over Mount St Helens

This is one of the photos in which I could've arrived at the scene a few minutes earlier and might have been happier at the result but still like the sun coming over the shattered top of the last volcano to erupt in North America and lately it has been suggesting it might do so soon. This is part of the "Ring of Fire" which is composed of active volcanoes throughout America's Pacific Rim. This also gave me a chance to play with Paint Shop Pro's clone brush as well as it's high pass sharpening and a little extra on top of that. Downsized a bit much and like it even better. 80% compression jpeg
