I haven't posted an image of St. Helen's in a long time and I've been holding onto this one for a bit. The processing on this one was tough because the wind was blowing so hard. I had to hand blend 7 images for depth of focus and sharpness throughout the frame. This was taken at twilight as the supermoon rose up over the left shoulder of St. Helen's the summer of 2014. I think that this is one of my new personal favorites. Hope you will enjoy it as well!
