Olympic Mountains
« on: August 16, 2011, 02:45:45 PM »
We had a fantastic couple of days in the Olympic Mountains of Washington State last weekend.  The light conditions were very good for photography and the plants were at their peak - a very late year because of lingering snow.  Here's a few happy snaps of the meadows plus Campanula piperi, Petrophyton hendersonii and Erythronium montanum.  For more pictures check out:

A marvellous place David. Thanks for sharing your pictures. Oh those Ery. montanum flowers. Will that be where Ian chooses to die Maggi? ;D
