[Out122ndWay] Mount Hood-of-the-Day: Cloudcap

3298.
I've done one cloudcap photo before; this one, while chaotic and low in detail, is very entrancing. More of a cloud-hoodie, really.

The location can be more clarified by the blade set at right, which not only gives one the nearest cross streets, but tells you it's in Portland's Argay Neighborhood. These are the old-style street blades, which seem to be becoming rarer along the main streets by the day.

Now, the mountain:


The mountain, as I said, is in low contrast. A surfeit of sunshine today throws the buildings at the far end of the Rossi property into a higher contrast, but that big floppy cloudcap should be unmistakable.


Head in the clouds, indeed.
