Mt Hood

The Story

This set is from a hike up Mt. Hood with my friend Tim Taaca in October 2023. We got lucky with the timing — after hiking a good ways up, the alpenglow settled over the top of the mountain with completely clear skies the whole way around.

That gave us these really soft, natural gradients across the sky as the sun went down. I was really happy with how this whole set turned out.
