Mount Rainier is a massive stratovolcano located 54 miles (87 km) southeast of Seattle in the state of Washington, United States. It is the most topographically prominent mountain in the contiguous United States and the Cascade Volcanic Arc, with a summit elevation of 14,411 ft (4,392 m). Mt. Rainier is considered one of the most dangerous volcanoes in the world, and it is on the Decade Volcano list. Because of its large amount of glacial ice, Mt. Rainier could potentially produce massive lahars that would threaten the whole Puyallup River valley.
.....
Mount Rainier National Park is a United States National Park located in southeast Pierce County and northeast Lewis County in Washington state. It was established on March 2, 1899 as the fifth national park in the United States. The park encompasses 236,381 acres (369.35 sq mi; 956.60 km2) including all of Mount Rainier, a 14,410-foot (4,390 m) stratovolcano. The mountain rises abruptly from the surrounding land with elevations in the park ranging from 1,600 feet (490 m) to over 14,000 feet (4,300 m). The highest point in the Cascade Range, around it are valleys, waterfalls, subalpine wildflower meadows, old growth forest and more than 25 glaciers. The volcano is often shrouded in clouds that dump enormous amounts of rain and snow on the peak every year and hide it from the crowds that head to the park on weekends.
Mount Rainier is circled by the Wonderland Trail and is covered by several glaciers and snowfields totaling some 35 square miles (91 km2). Carbon Glacier is the largest glacier by volume in the continental United States, while Emmons Glacier is the largest glacier by area. About 1.8 million people visit Mount Rainier National Park each year. Mount Rainier is a popular peak for mountain climbing with some 10,000 attempts per year with approximately 50% making it to the summit.
The park contains outstanding subalpine meadows and 91,000 acres (370 km2) of old growth forests.

Hi Lynn, no that was a looong time ago I asked that question, so I was surprised to get the response now; I had figured out how to F/V a long time ago. Thanks for your wonderful comments; this was an amazing morning at Mt Rainier after a very early 2.5 hour drive up there.

You do have to be in the largest image, when clicking on an artists works, to be able to do that, and you just click on the piece, then click on piece again, and it should appear, if not, let me know, and I can lead your through the entire process, step by step, as I am always willing to help newcomers to FAA!

This is one very fine capture and presentation, Inge, and I just love it! great composition and your depth and perspective are awesome! As far as Vote, go to bottom of someone's piece of artwork and you will see boxes beneath saying vote, favorite, Facebook like, Twitter, Tweet, etc. If someone click on one of these boxes as I am going to do with your for your awesome piece of work here, it shows up all over the internet. Try it once, and you will see. You got the big, "Elvis" F/V on this gorgeous piece of artwork!

Inge Johnsson replied:
Thanks again, Charles. When you say "vote" what is that, a favorite? And also, where do you "like it" on Facebook? Sorry, I am somewhat new to FAA and not yet sure about all the social networking features.
