Several years ago I was living in Olympia and got up early and drove to Seattle in time for the sunrise. I went to Alki Beach and took a series of photos of the Olympic Mountains intending to create a panorama of the range. Early morning was ideal, since with the sun would be behind my back and the haze would be at a minimum. There was an unexpected problem, however. When I created the panorama, in order for it to be a reasonable height for viewing, the length would be over 10 feet.

But on the way out of West Seattle, I was caught in rush hour traffic. I was in the outside lane on the bridge and traffic was stopped. I have left my camera sitting on the passenger seat with the telephoto lens still mounted. I rolled down the passenger window and took this shot looking over the industrial area. I never processed this image, because I was distracted by the image that was zoomed in on Rainier. Just a reminder to review your past images for overlooked gems.
