Pete sits for a self-timer portraiture on the summit of Mt. Rose. There is a good, easy trick to getting a good picture, technically. Make sure that sunlight gets on the face, and use a good, powerful enough, flash for fill-in light if the shadows are too harsh. The annoying reflections in the eyes, glasses, or shiny metals, can be easily removed using good photo editing software. Photos taken July 31, 2000, all from the summit of Mt. Rose, by Petesthousandpeaks.

A hazy view of Lake Tahoe is seen in the photo to the bottom left.

The even hazier view of Reno, NV, is seen, looking to the northeast. The highrises in the downtown area are visible in the view, although not too clearly in this photo.
