Default U.S. versus Italy for mountain rides?

That looks like it was take about the same time the other picture was
because the reflected clouds are the same. That's an amazingly calm
day.


Yes, they were taken the same day. It was a calm day, but it can be
very windy at Crater Lake especially in the afternoon. As you know,
it's no coincidence that the most spectacular rides are accompanied by
great weather. It was an amazing day... the best ever on the bike, for
me, in North America.

I just happened to do a image search on google using the keywords:
"cloud reflections" (http://tinyurl.com/avt3x) and had to chuckle
looking at the results. The #1 photo is another photo from my Crater
Lake photo gallery on that day. Here is a link to the complete gallery
and more reflection shots if anybody is interested:

This time I took the photo so that the Bernina Massif was reflected
around the central horizon in the frame. I was greatly pleased to
have experienced Miralago after all these years.... I can't show you
the picture but...


I'm sure it's a good one just like your others. I find reflection shots
intriguing because they are natural art. Here's a mountain reflection
shot I think is one of the best by an Alaskan photographer:

By the way, did you notice the reference to you in the Crater Lake
photo gallery? http://tinyurl.com/8u4xv
