This was the last photo I took in the mountains of Oregon, during blue hour on one of my last days in the state. We'd leave a few days later to start the American Road Trip and I haven't been back to what it used to be my backyard since then. 5 months! Time really flies.

As the title suggests, the mountain in the photo is Mt Jefferson, the second tallest peak in Oregon. To the left you can see the Three Sisters, farther south and containing the third tallest peak (which I climbed!). The image was taken from Mt Hood, the tallest of them all!

I struggled to make any images that day, I knew it was going to be my last day for a long time over there and I wanted to take advantage making images I hadn't made before. And while I didn't realize succeed at that, I still came back with a few pictures I like, like this one.
