17th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Altered Images
Scotchman Peak

One early morning in September, I stepped out on my lawn in northern Idaho and viewed the most explicit image of the face of 'the Scotchman' on Scotchman Peak that I had ever witnessed. Scotchman Peak is part of the Cabinet Mountain Range that divides Idaho from Montana. Imagine a person lying on his back face up, Freshly fallen snow has helped to better define “the Scotchman’s” facial features. What you can see is his brow, nose, lips, and chin. I quickly attached the Canon telephoto zoom lens to my Canon Digital Rebel camera and shot this image.
