(I’ve worked for a photography studio, so believe me, anything can be done if you want to expend the time to do so.)

Doing it well is the hard part. I’d take several photos at the same time with slightly varying angles; you’ll be able to match up Rainier pretty easily and then mask off the power lines on certain layers. Be careful around leaves.

Do you, like me, wish at times that there was a powerline deletion tool on photoshop? It’s merely there, in this photo, and not a problem in the image (rather some sort of autumnal funerary festoon) but the closest view I have of Mt. Rainier has a full set of power, phone, and cable lines across it and that’s not what I want to see.

Leaves are just starting to turn here in the deep south. In the 70′s here. Low 50′s in the morning. Needed a jacket for the first time. Wish we had snow!!!!!!!!!!! (really, I do. I’m weird like that.)

Just bought a Bradford Pear for my wife’s Mother’s Day present this year, and your picture makes me glad for the purchase. It’s only a sapling, but it’s still clinging on to its leaves, like yours. Fast grower, too!

When an ice storm rolls through, they end up peeled like bananas.
