Tootin' My Own Horn

I went through my comments tonight on my Flickr page and discovered that I was asked to add this photo to a group (QEMD "Finch") and won an award (Shield of Excellence) for this in the last week!

P9240321

I took this photo last September and it's Mount Nebo in Utah; and the King's Peak is the highest peak in the Wasatch Mountains. It is truly a stunning mountain, in fact, the whole Nebo Loop was incredible. The photo I posted on Wednesday was Payson Lake which isn't far from Mount Nebo. I definitely want to go back this summer and take more time to explore.

Here is a video of the entire mountain as I was standing on the ledge to view it. It was quite a drop down as I tried to show (I didn't get very close to the edge).



Have a great weekend, everyone!

Sometimes we do have to toot our own horn. Your photography is award winning.

That is just my humble opinion...You are the best.

I need to toot my horn about my article being picked up and but I keep forgetting it.
