The Palouse Promise at Sunset....Explored!

            I love reliving the moment when I make a photograph. I made this image back in June and while I had looked at it before, I just decided to edit it and the memories of that evening came rushing back. I had been out all day shooting and decided to go back to the hotel to catch a nap. I remember the weather man saying it was going to be a beautiful evening for a sunset and I promised myself I would capture it at Steptoe Butte. I fell asleep and when I got up it was too late to drive all the way from Pullman to Steptoe Butte by sunset. So, I got in the car AND chased the Sun... over the rolling hills in the Palouse, past the beautiful barns,... looking, searching... for a place to pull over. Finally, when I reached the top of a hill I pulled over on a strip of a shoulder and watched what was left of the sunset. This image is a product of my chase and what was left of my promise.  A special thanks to the love of my life for being my assistant and carrying all my gear.  He did a great job.

The Palouse Promise Explored!  Thank you!
Thanks for viewing, the favs, and commenting.  It is appreciated.
