Hu-ha! (al pacino style lol you get the idea..) That is one amazing photo!!! any high res? perhaps type in the name in photoshop and that would make one heck of a printable photo...
Any tips on how you shot it? Lenses? equipment? etc.
**hint is getting higher res possible?
edit: Or even upload it to:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_St._Helens because yours is definitely a lot better than any of those on wikipedia

I don't place high res anywhere on the web. I stretch it out a bit by posting images as large as I do right now. Problem is that a lot of ripping occurs and having higher res images floating out there makes it easier to do just that. So sorry, I won't make a high res version available and to be safe I should be watermarking the other ones that I do post for added security. I might post it on Wikipedia just so a better image is there but the only way to get a larger copy of this image would be buying a print. At that rate, I'd be able to produce up to a 20x30' for anyone interested. Thank you very much for the warm compliments though. It DOES make a wonderful printable image and I actually have a 5x7 of it on my desk at work that has been a hot item with people at work, asking where I got it hehe. The resolution of the original image is 3008x2000 at 300dpi.

that appears to be a hdr shot.
correct me if im wrong.
It's a single RAW that was shot and it has tone mapping applied but it's not a text book HDR. I have an HDR version of it but this one pops out more.
To answer maudit's question about equipment, here's the info pulled from EXIF:
Make: NIKON CORPORATION
Model: NIKON D70s
Shutter Speed: 5/300 (1/60) second
F Number: F/11.0
Focal Length: 24 mm
I used a circular polarizer, the lens is the AF-S DX Zoom-NIKKOR 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G ED II. It was shot hand held.
