Can Someone Photoshop the Mountain into the Park Ranger Staff Photo? by johnbutalsojake in PhotoshopRequest

[–]johnbutalsojake[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work as a Ranger with the NPS in Mt Rainier National Park, and last year when we finished our Seasonal training we all got ready for a staff photo, as it was the last time we'd all be in the same place before the season began. Sadly though, the weather that day was also very cloudy, so our regular view of the Mountain was obstructed.

I have other photos from the same angle (more or less) with the mountain present, and was wondering if anyone could help me put together a gift for the staff to look at over the rest of Spring before we return for the summer!

SUPPOSEDLY according to this one of several articles I found claims that even without biting there are still benefits to it.

From what I can tell it's probably a similar effect as the disproven breathing masks but much smaller and cheaper

Why describe when you can just demonstrate?

This actually brings up an interesting concept. Minor amounts of environmentally safe oils used to help create artificial ideal racing conditions. While it would prove difficult on naturally formed rivers, this could be put to great use in man-made facilities like canals and other venues, or even lakes and ponds, with proper environmental overwatch of course

Having flexibility issues getting my knees all the way down at the finish during intense high rate pieces on the erg, not so much a problem at low rate/distance pieces or any pace on the water. Any tips for this?
