An early season snow coats the evergreen trees in the last rays of the sun along The North Cascades Highway inside the park.
I catch the last of the sun on one of the many peaks framing the road through North cascades National Park as we race to the end of the road to try to catch sunset (we didn't quite make it :) )
The view from First Beach, along the Pacific coast of Olympic National Park, was spectacular, especially after the sun went down, as we were treated to one of the most amazing cloud free displays of color I have ever seen. A 7 frame bracketing sequence was used to try to bring out all the amazing colors that were visible by eye.
