Here are some pics I took during my last hike to Tonotake with rss.

It started snowing when we were going uphill, shot with sigma 70-200 f2.8 (rss has a better photo here I believe)

Two of these taken from top around the end of day with 50 mm 1.8

A pano of entire view from top, stitched from 17 shots. Unfortunately Mt. Fuji is hidden in clouds

Last one, taken just around sunrise with 50 mm 1.8.

I took some night pano's too but my lens broke then & hence night pano's are no good.

Comments welcome & appriciated.
Thanks for looking :-)

Awsome shots and great memories Raj! I can't believe we were actually hiking in all that snow! The panorama turned out surprisingly well too! Congratulations!

Beautiful shots Raj, the first really rocks me, it's wild! All are excellent with different colours and looks, it must've been a great day.

DDA, Fer, Hardman, dv2004, thanks for your kind comments.
Hardman, appriciate your patience, I know it can be very frustrating at times.

I am very glad you guys liked the photos. These comments make the effort to hike with heavy gear worth :-)

2,3,4 are my favorites. I'd love to see a bigger version of #4 (the pano).

Thanks Ken.
The original pano is too big + takes a long time to download/display so I created a web version. Let me see if I can upload the proper version or little bigger version on web.

Cheers
